<p>LONDON — Three years after fleeing Russian President Vladimir Putin's attack on him and his businesses in Moscow, Russian billionaire Boris Berezovsky loiters in his manicured Surrey garden, watching history apparently repeat itself in Russia.</p>
<p>In the past month, his fellow oligarch, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, head of Yukos — Russia's largest oil company — became a target of Mr. Putin's conflict with the oligarchs. In what is widely seen as an attempt to curb their political influence, Mr. Khodorkovsky's deputy was arrested and Yukos' offices were raided by masked police. Mr. Khodorkovsky's response was to announce that he will steer clear of politics until 2007.</p>
