Due to prolonged isolation, Viktor Bout gets very tired after a long time of communicating with people. His wife told about this in an interview with a Lenta.ru correspondent. Alla also spoke about other difficulties of adaptation after a long period of imprisonment.

According to her, the fatigue is primarily psychological, because after 14 years of isolation, Victor has to communicate with a huge number of people. In addition, he has a hard time due to the difference in time zones between Russia and the United States. Alla says that her husband is very tired in the evening, because he wakes up out of habit at 6 o’clock in the morning

Victor receives a charge of energy in the morning thanks to yoga and meditation. Every morning he spends an hour and a half on exercises, a similar ritual is carried out in the evening, before going to bed.

Among Bout’s immediate plans is to complete a medical examination. It is necessary to visit the offices of the ophthalmologist and dentist.
