The first vice-speaker of the Crimean parliament, Yefim Fiks, suggested that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky answer the Crimeans to four questions about Kiev’s blockades of the peninsula, “instead of his empty promises about the return of Crimea”.
Earlier, Zelensky, on his Twitter account, on the occasion of the anniversary of the referendum on the annexation of Crimea to Russia, said that Kiev would not abandon the peninsula and prepared a “strategy for de-occupation and reintegration”. Zelensky also called the Crimean referendum “fake”.
“Instead of empty statements about the return of Crimea and supposedly regrets about leaving, let Zelensky answer the Crimeans four questions. How were those who staged a water blockade punished? How were those who staged the energy blockade punished? How were those who staged the transport blockade punished? How were they punished? Therefore, we do not need to shed crocodile tears. We know perfectly well that no one even bore any censure, even threatened no one with a finger, and instead only intensified the persecution and threats to the Crimeans”, – RIA Novosti Fix said.
According to him, it is time for the Kiev authorities to change their minds and start building good-neighborly relations with Russia.
