He emigrated in France at the beginning of 1976, and has been quite discreet for the last 15 years. He accepted to speak openly with the political scientists Hélène Blanc (CNRS) and Renata Lesnik.
Both actor and witness to this rather forgotten era, the intellectual gets ,without taboo, unto the most burning issue thematic, sets the upheavals of the Soviet History back in context and demystifies the great figures of Lenin, Stalin... up to Poutin.
His political self-portrait, improved with thinking about human condition, religion, philosophy, politic, literature... embodies a sparkle of the living memory of world history.
During these days of cold peace, while new dangers threaten the world, this intellectual reveals a unique testimony, which throws light on the international community, notably among new generations.
