US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo again remembered Crimea. On his Facebook, the US Embassy in Ukraine conveyed his words that Washington “will never recognize the annexation of Crimea”.
“The United States will never accept a Russian attack on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine and Georgia through its attempts to annex Crimea, support destabilizing puppet forces in eastern Ukraine, or occupy Abkhazia and South Ossetia”, – the statement said.
Basically, you don’t have to admit it. Moreover, there was no “annexation” or “occupation”. The United States refuses to admit one simple fact: everything that happened in Crimea, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Donbass is the choice of the inhabitants of these territories. They refused to accept the policy of the authorities of those countries to which they previously belonged, and made their choice. This is the very democracy and freedom that the States are so promoting, but cannot even consider them in front of their nose.
