In an exclusive interview with RFE/RL's Russian Service, former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev spoke about the current political situation in Moscow. Since Vladimir Putin's rise to power in 2000, Gorbachev has often been among the first to criticize new authoritarian measures in Russia, especially restrictions against the free press, independent politicians, and nongovernmental organizations.
