Accused believes darkness over Russia will not last

The bravery of Vladimir Kara-Murza is beyond words. 

He is heading for a long time to hard labour in Russian prison colony somewhere far away in the east.

What motivates someone to behave in such a noble way?

“For me, as a historian, this is cause for reflection,” said Kara-Murza. “Criminals are supposed to repent of what they have done. I, on the other hand, am in prison for my political views. I also know that the day will come when the darkness over our country will dissipate.”
