[04:46 - 05:48] Reflection on Yuri's Potential Reaction to Ukraine and the Impact of Political Assassinations

I also want to ask, how do you think Yuri would have reacted to how, uh, well, it began, such, uh, well, first with Crimea, what started, then, uh, these, uh, military states, that Russia and Ukraine, which eventually led us to the moment, uh, when Russia, in fact, went fully into war with Ukraine. Could he have predicted this, could he have thought it would happen? How would he... You know, it's very difficult for me to talk about this. Hmm, Yuri was very... Well, how do you, how do you think? Uh, it's such, you know, a very oxymoronic thing, because I believe that if Yuri were alive—this presupposes that Yuri is alive. If Yuri were alive, none of this would have happened. You see, if Nemtsov were alive, many things would not have happened. If Politkovskaya were alive. For me, Nemtsov's death was simply, I was numb. I literally went numb because I attended these memorial, uh, demonstrations and rallies. Uh, people approached me, I just couldn't say anything, because I thought that, uh, Yuri, with his death, he had already closed off the possibility of such deaths. That this wouldn't happen again. They had trampled, this wouldn't happen. But it doesn't stop; it only gets worse and worse.
