This was (after Kasparov's own words) a meeting with young people and it would have been surprising if nothing would have been recorded. I knew it from the first second that Kasparov would be trying to get some honey out of the event. But his mentioning of Putin is just hilarious nonsense. Kasparov never was and never will be some expert politician. He's way too occupied with his own ego.
