BUG ON THE WALL…

Some two months after investigators raided his offices and one month after a warrant (later withdrawn) was issued for his arrest, tycoon Boris Berezovsky submitted to a lengthy interview with federal prosecutors. His lawyer said later that he was charged with “illegal entrepreneurship,” money laundering, and conducting private business while on the government payroll. Berezovsky himself said “the spirit of Primakov” lies behind the allegations. Unafraid to wrestle with the angel, Berezovsky after his interrogation stopped by the prime minister’s office for two and a half hours of coffee talk. Sources have not revealed how many agencies recorded their conversation.
