Putin confirms receiving Berezovsky’s ‘homesick’ letters

President Putin confirmed having twice received the same letter from Boris Berezovsky, once in February and after his death.

In his letters, the self-exiled Russian tycoon owned up to his mistakes and asked the president for forgiveness.

Mr. Putin said he had hesitated to answer the message, bearing in mind the legal aspect of this tricky situation.

He also said Russia had no evidence that foreign intelligence might have been involved into the billionaire’s death.
