MS DAVIES: Mr Nevzlin, you first met Mr Berezovsky in the
late 1980s or early 1990s; is that correct?
A. Beginning of the '90s would be most correct.
Q. And you subsequently became friends; is that right?
A. Yes, you could call our relationship a friendship.
Q. And you remain friends today; is that right?
A. Yes, you could indeed say that.
Q. And over the years since the early 1990s, you have been
in regular contact with Mr Berezovsky; is that correct?
A. Yes, that is.
Q. And you remain in regular contact with Mr Berezovsky
today, 2011?
A. We meet fairly often, as far as we can, Mr Berezovsky
and I.
Q. Have you seen Mr Berezovsky in Israel recently?
A. Yes.
Q. When was that exactly?
A. It was literally a few days ago, a week ago I'd say.
Q. And during that meeting did you discuss any matters
relevant to this case?
A. Yes, we did.
Q. What did you discuss that was relevant to this case?
A. Only the overall information for Mr Berezovsky that
I was going to be a witness and that on all the
questions that I was asked, I would speak the truth and
nothing but the truth.
Q. When did you first meet Mr Patarkatsishvili?
A. I think that too was at the beginning of the '90s, later
than I met Mr Berezovsky but not significantly later.
Q. And did you also become friendly with him?
A. We had a good relationship but I wouldn't call it as
close as a friendship.
Q. Did you keep in regular contact with him until his death
in 2008?
A. Yes, I was in regular contact with him, as much as the
way we both moved around a lot permitted, but more I was
in contact with Mr Berezovsky.

А вот и прикол. )))))) Это вопрос про Путина. ))))))

Q. But you are a supporter of Mr Berezovsky's opposition to
that administration; is that right?
A. I don't really understand your question.

Дальше пошли вопросы о роли Невзлина в создании Сибнефти.
ЗЫ. Наши олигархи довольно смешные люди. )))))

Q. You tell us in paragraph 21 of your statement, at bundle
D1/04/64, that you had "a high-level role" in relation
to Bank Menatep's support for the bid made by SBS and
NFK in the Sibneft loans for shares auction. What do
you mean by --
A. What I meant was that, as a shareholder in the bank and
then later in Yukos at the high level, in fact I was
number two after Khodorkovsky, that I was working on the
overarching aspects but I wasn't dealing with the
specifically business and documentary aspects.
