Khodorkovskij är liksom övriga oligarker i Ryssland och Ukraina, samt de som flytt därifrån till London eller Israel, en grov ekonomisk förbrytare. De flesta av dem är även ansvariga för mord och annan grov våldsbrottslighet. De masochistiska, hycklande och Europahatande Putindyrkarna älskar dock de oligarker som lierat sig med Kreml:

The most famous oligarchs of the Putin era include Roman Abramovich, Oleg Deripaska, Mikhail Fridman, Mikhail Prokhorov, Alisher Usmanov, German Khan, Viktor Vekselberg, Leonid Michelson, Vagit Alekperov, and still Vladimir Potanin and Vitaly Malkin.
Between 2000 and 2004, Putin apparently won a power-struggle with the oligarchs, reaching a 'grand-bargain' with them. This bargain allowed the oligarchs to maintain most of their powers, in exchange for their explicit support – and alignment with – his government.

One notable statistic about Russia is that the mean wealth of its 110m adults last year was $10,980 while the median was $870. In other words, if the country’s assets were equally divided, the man in the middle would possess more than $10,000 but, in practice, his net worth is less than a 10th of that sum. This is the result of 110 billionaires controlling 35 per cent of the wealth.---
Furthermore, although the workings of Russian’s political elite are murky, Mr Putin relies upon the support of oligarchs of various factions.
“They are the Kremlin’s key constituency and, if his leadership became a liability, they would get rid of him in the way that shareholders get rid of a chief executive,” says Samuel Greene, director of King’s College London’s Russia Institute.
