Putin is not backing the faction, Pavlovsky claims, and the President's silence is a result of "disarray" rather than consent. But by hesitating, he has allowed the situation to deteriorate. Sooner or later, Pavlovsky believes the President will have to intervene, probably by making changes at the top of his Kremlin administration. How did Putin's relationship with Khodorkovsky become so strained? The crisis started early this...
