The Prosecutor General's Office is fighting the expansion of American globalism represented by Khodorkovsky

Leontiev called Khodorkovsky an agent of globalism in the American version, for which there is no concept of national sovereignty, and with which, accordingly, the state cannot but fight.

this idea (Leontiev's frequent neighbor in political commentary, Alexander Dugin, developed : "Khodorkovsky was a staunch globalist, that is, he served the Antichrist ." )

True, Khodorkovsky, according to Leontiev, did not act in the interests of the West when he sought the construction of an oil pipeline to China, which is why, they say, the West "surrendered" him. For President Bush and his entourage are "the same oil goons, only bigger."

In the same vein, Leontiev explained the brutal style of the General Prosecutor's Office: we need to scare Western investors, because our most valuable assets are still too undervalued, and there is no other way to prevent these same investors from buying them up on the cheap. Well, if you need criminal reprisals to protect assets, then you have to resort to them.

Leontiev notes that since accusations against Khodorkovsky are typical of all privatizations, not just super-large ones, but any kind of privatization, this creates the risk of redistribution, that is, new chaos and instability. But one has to take this risk, they say, since the state can no longer live further by inertia, super efforts are required to overcome this inertia, and super efforts are impossible without risk (and, as noted above, without brutality in means).
