Mikhail Prokhorov: Democracy Now in Russia



"What worked before does not work now. Look in the streets. People are not happy."


"Stability at any price is no longer acceptable for Russians." 


"I am against any revolution, because I know the history of Russia. Every time we have revolution, it was a very bloody period." 

"We now have all the pieces in place to move very fast to being a real democracy." 



Mikhail Prokhorov, age 46
Russia's third-richest person, $18 billion net worth
owner, New Jersey Nets basketball team
