Aleksandr Valerievich, as usual, refused to participate in the meeting, uttering his invariable formulation: “Glory to Ukraine! Death to the Russian invaders! Death to Putin, tyrant, scoundrel and murderer!”. I didn’t hear the rest.

Skobov is awake, relatively healthy and sends his regards to everyone. Having finished editing a voluminous article for Historical Expertise, he promises to return to answering letters from his correspondents, which he had put off due to work that required concentration and tension.

His familiarity with the case continues. According to the words of investigator Kozhukhov, pronounced at the open part of the session, the case involves other figures, known and unknown…”.
