Vladimir Kara-Murza's courage is truly inspiring.

I am very happy he's out of the gulag in Siberia. Putin's an unloved human. Thanks so much for posting this important interview.

See, this Hero teamed up with John McCain, to go after Putin in 2008, IMO, this is another reason why Trump hated McCain. Trump is a Russian Asset, and pledged his Loyalty to Putin in the 90s.

Highest respect for Kara-Mursa! A true fighter for the good!

I think the fact that before President Biden withdrew from the race, he was still working on this deal, says everything about the character that he has. I think it was the right decision politically for him to withdraw, but I think for a leader to focus on the task at hand, rather than their own future in politics is a rare thing.

Biden and Schultz, words cannot express the gratitude I feel to these men both for helping Ukraine and releasing these people from certain death in Russia. God bless you both.

[krismodrow]

Thank you leaders! Thank you Chanselor Shulz, President Biden, Jake Sullivan. Thank you Vladmir Kara-Murza, you are a brave man in every sense! I am so glad you are free and safe❤❤

[julijakeit]

He had money for Cambridge education, private treatment in the US and he chooses to fight for his dream of free, democratic, civilized Russia. That's a hero.

[toncek]

I hope that one day Kara-Murza will be president of Russia

[amerikanatv]

Trump could not/would not have done that.

[rorychivers]

Are you watching, Donald?

This is how you America

[christinapereira]

"For you, Joe, I will do this. " Trust me, no European leader would ever do anything for Trump.

[lars]

A critic of Putin? His life will be short. If he stays in the west and out of Russia, he may live.

👍👍 Chancellor Schulz, POTUS Biden, and National Security Advisor Sullivan.

The same warning applies to Donald Trump! Keep Trump out of the White House.
