greed [Theme]
I repent and apologize for my greed. I craved wealth without thinking that it was to the detriment of others. Covering up my sin with “historical moment”, “brilliant combinations” and “amazing opportunities”, I forgot about my fellow citizens.... I repent and ask forgiveness for the freedom of speech I trampled.... I repent and ask forgiveness for what I brought to the power of Vladimir Putin. Because he was obliged, but could not see in him a future greedy tyrant and usurper, a man who trampled freedom and stopped the development of Russia. Many of us didn't recognize it then, but that doesn't excuse me. Excuse me.
