By words of Berezovsky, he plans to change "anticonstitutional regime" in Russia by force. "Current regime in Russia lost legitimacy in all senses. Putin and parliament are illegal. They are unconstitutional because ratified series of principle anticonstitutional decisions. The brightest example is change of elected governors by appointed. This contradicts not only to Constitution but to the law", - announced Berezovsky.
Jack Straw promised to take appropriate measures against persons, who use territory of Great Britain as a base for fomentation of disorders and terrorism in other countries".
From his turn, Boris Berezovsky doubted that British authorities will review his status of political refugee. He noted that his statements don`t contradict to British laws. Berezovsky prepares letter to British Foreign Office, in which he will set forth the position on possible review of his status.
