Wang Ye has always been unclear about which faction Khodorkovsky is closer to.
He is supposed to be at odds with the first faction.
After all, the first faction is Puding's "personal territory".
The second faction?
Also unlikely, because the second faction is the bastion of Moscow State's political arena, and it is not often seen that Khodorkovsky is close to that side.
As for the Third Faction, it is a bit possible.
Because people like A Bu and Rilinov, who are the backbone of the Third Faction, are all good friends of Khodorkovsky.
But now Wang Ye is the party leader of the Third Faction. If Khodorkovsky enters the Third Faction and runs for the general election through this faction...
It's not impossible, but it feels strange....
Could it be that Khodorkovsky wants to form a new faction?!
