It is not polite for a Russian to interfere in British politics.

I am not aspiring to be a senior bureaucrat. It would limit my freedom.

I don't believe in democracy by bayonet.

I never planned to be rich, frankly speaking. I was more interested in being free, and doing things. And money helps. But otherwise I was never that interested in it.

Politics should not interfere with sports. And sports should impact politics.

The British people have the right to decide - have the right to decide whether or not they want to be part of the E.U. And I shouldn't interfere in this.
