I repent and ask for forgiveness for greed. I longed for riches, not thinking that this is to the detriment of others.… I repent and ask forgiveness for trampling free speech.… I repent and ask for forgiveness for bringing Vladimir Putin to power. I should have seen, but could not see in him the future of a greedy tyrant and usurper, a man who trampled freedom and stopped the development of Russia. Many of us did not recognize it then, but that does not excuse me. I'm sorry.
