Russia’s Constitutional Court Chairman Valery Zorkin published a strongly-worded article accusing fellow Justices Anatoly Kononov and Vladimir Yaroslavtsev of attempting to undermine the court and ultimately destroy the Russian state. Kononov and Yaroslavtsev are known for their numerous dissenting opinions, but the immediate pretext of the attack was their recent interviews criticizing the Russian judicial system as being totally controlled by the executive branch. According to Zorkin, the court should “purify itself” of unprincipled persons serving unnamed enemies of Russia.
