The head of Crimea, Sergei Aksenov, announced this at the final press conference in Simferopol.
“It all started when Yanukovych changed his orientation and said, that’s it, we’re not going to the Customs Union, but we’re going to the EU. This was the impetus for the development of those phenomena, as a result of which Crimea returned to the Russian Federation. If it weren’t for him, then perhaps such trends would not have existed,” said the Crimean governor.
