	FRONTLINE/WORLD . Moscow - Rich in Russia . How to Make a Billion Dollars - Boris Berezovsky \| PBS
		Berezovsky, by his own admission, wasn't a brilliant scientist, but he was an ambitious and skilled networker, constantly giving speeches and organizing seminars and trips abroad.
		In March, Berezovsky was arrested on a warrant alleging that he defrauded the Russian region of Samara of nearly $2 billion in 1994 and 1995.
		Berezovsky viewed himself as a king-maker, and he was a major force in ousting some senior officials and electing others.

	Oligarch - Boris Berezovsky
		Berezovsky may not have attended the economic emergency meeting called by Prime Minister Kiriyenko of the Big Ten oligarchs, but this was the first such gathering of the group Boris Berezovsky had missed.
		Berezovsky took exception to this and has been attempting to sue Forbes for slander.
		Berezovsky's associates are either in prison-like Nikolai Glushkov, once Deputy General Manager of Aeroflot _ or on the wanted list, like Badri Patarkatsishvili, Berezovsky's right hand man. The embittered population, fleeced during the reform decade, is receptive to the propaganda line of rallying around Putin against the miscreant who has sold out their country.

	Berezovsky Says Putin Knew About FSB Role
		Berezovsky said that Liberal Russia, a political movement he bankrolls and co-chairs, would file formal appeals with the European Parliament and other international organizations in a bid to force a full investigation of the bombings.
		Berezovsky called Tuesday's press conference in order to release what he billed as new evidence of the FSB's involvement in the 1999 bombings, but no new information relevant to the bombings was in fact made public.
		According to Berezovsky, four explosives experts from Britain and France had examined the available evidence from the Ryazan incident -- including photographs of the explosive device made by investigators -- and concluded that the bomb was authentic.

		Berezovsky, the exiled billionaire who was one of the most influential figures in Boris Yeltsin's Kremlin, accused Vladimir Putin of complicity in devastating bombings of Russian apartment blocks in 1999 that killed over 200 people in Moscow and the small southern town of Volgodonsk.
		Berezovsky often had dealings with Chechens, and had a hand in hostage releases, a very murky aspect of Yeltsin's Russia, where top police officials were often rumored to be getting a cut of the ransom money.
		Why Berezovsky has chosen this particular moment to launch his attack is still a mystery: he may have felt the need to remind Moscow of his presence, or he may be responding to some perceived but as yet unpublished threat from the Putin administration.

		Berezovsky, who was in Paris when the warrant was issued, said that he would return to face the charges although he didn't specify when he would return.
		Berezovsky became the leader of the Russian oligarchs that dominated the Russian economy during the 1990s and who are held responsible by many Russians for what is seen as the looting of the Russian economy.

		Rebel billionaire Boris Berezovsky is hoping that the power of his chequebook will be enough to strike down Russia's latest empire-builder his own former protacgac, who turned on him soon after moving into the Kremlin in 2000.
		Berezovsky is loathed as one of those who created a form of government in which the greed of a very few men who could order politicians around and run Russia as if it were a company and they the board of directors damaged, and perhaps destroyed, a newborn democracy.
		Berezovsky, the archpriest of expediency who had ruthlessly used his media power to undermine victim after political victim with allegations of vice and corruption had been the loser in someone else's power play.

	Газета.Ru - Berezovsky granted refugee status
		The UK’s decision to grant Berezovsky political asylum in the middle of the extradition proceeding seems especially surprising given that the British home secretary had already turned down an asylum request in March this year, shortly after the extradition proceedings were launched.
		Berezovsky’s aides on Wednesday refused to discuss the possible implications the UK’s decision would have on his extradition case.
		Extradition proceedings against Boris Berezovsky began in London in April 2003, after the Prosecutor General’s Office accused the entrepreneur and Yuly Dybov, Berezovsky’s former business partner in Logovaz, a major car dealership, of stealing cars from the VAZ car plant and defrauding the administration of the Samara region of $1.9 billion.

	Boris Berezovsky organized "Assassination of Russia" - Kommersant Moscow
		Those expecting Boris Berezovsky to show the document confirming the FSB’s connection to the bombing of apartment houses in Moscow signed by Vladimir Putin were disappointed.
		The opening address of Boris Berezovsky, who was introduced as co-chairman of the Liberal Russia movement, was quite short: he announced that a year-long independent investigation of the apartment house bombings in September 1999 and the abortive bombing of an apartment house in Ryazan convinced him that the FSB was behind the crimes.
		Mr Berezovsky left the presidium and sat in the first row of the stalls for precisely ten minutes while the fragment of the 52-minute film was being shown.

		The Prosecutor General's Office is still "investigating" Boris Berezovsky's alleged links to a number of recent crimes in Chechnya, and his alleged connection with the abduction of General Shpigun.
		Berezovsky's base, from which he attacks Putin, is economic, financial, informational and political influence areas in Russia, as well as his links with the Family and Yeltsin's surrounding.
		Berezovsky is a master of intrigue and he has already imposed his rules of the game on Putin's team; moreover, they are playing on Putin's ground.

	Boris Berezovski, the smuggler [Voltaire]
		Berezovski, after participating in multiple financial operations that lead to the flight of most of the Russian assets overseas, presents himself today as a liberal democrat, opposed to the administration and management of the government by the Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin, democratically elected of both the economy and the mass media.
		The history of Boris Berezovski in the post-Soviet Russia is an example, almost a caricature, of the new Russian entrepreneur generation, combining on a daily basis politics, economy and organized crime.
		Berezovski was not part of the political sphere, but rather to the scientific elite of the country, until 1989.

		Berezovsky's wicked fingers accomplish unbelievable feats: he evokes the sinister shades of tone, the eerie tremolos and still achieves technical perfection in the fiendish virtuoso passagework.
		Lastly, Berezovsky tackles Balakirev's Islamey fantasy, one of those war-horses that is either overplayed to the point of dense cacophony, or is underplayed by a pianist incapable or afraid of flinging himself through the demanding sections.
		Berezovsky easily accepts the virtuosic challenge while striving also to evince the passionate music that is sometimes buried beneath the swirls of notes.
