Russian dissident Vladmir Osechkin spoke to FRANCE 24 from the French city of Biarritz, where he has been living in exile since 2015. The founder of Gulagu.net, an NGO that documents abuses in the Russian prison system, believes the Russian secret services "tried to organise his liquidation" in September 2022. Osechkin compared Russian President Vladimir Putin to a "new Stalin" at the head of a 21st-century Gulag, "pushing inmates to head to war" in Ukraine.
