Chaly assures that Crimea was saved not by “polite people”, but by the people of Sevastopol
Simferopol, February 02 (PolitNavigator, Evgeniy Andreev) – The head of the Sevastopol Legislative Assembly, Alexey Chaly, believes that the fate of Crimea was determined not by the events of February 27, when the armed seizure of the Supreme Council took place, but by the earlier actions of the Sevastopol residents.

The politician stated this in an interview with the publication Russian idea.
“Unfortunately, there is now a lot of false information being spread regarding what happened during the revolution. I am deeply offended when the media write that it all started on February 27, when the building of the Supreme Council of Crimea was taken. The Sevastopol uprising of February 23 remains almost behind the scenes. Meanwhile, we ourselves actually displaced the previous government, and already on the evening of the 25th, Crimeans came to us and asked to give them 3-5 buses with Sevastopol residents, saying this: “As soon as they see people from Sevastopol in Simferopol, we will tear everyone there " Then, as you know, nothing came of it. The Simferopol residents failed to do everything the way it happened in Sevastopol. They needed help from Moscow.”
According to him, an objective version of the most dramatic days of the “Crimean Spring” is presented on the Sevastopol resource “Forpost”.
“All events are presented there in real time. About how we prepared a speech against Kyiv. That everything was done from within the city, by the Sevastopol residents themselves. The situation was changing rapidly. On the 21st, 22nd, 23rd we had to make decisions almost every hour – at most, every two hours,” says Alexey Chaly.
It is worth noting that on February 26, Sevastopol residents arrived at the walls of the Crimean parliament, arriving in Simferopol, according to various sources, on 5-6 buses. However, after the use of military gas during clashes between Russians and Crimean Tatars, both Simferopol and Sevastopol residents were forced out by supporters of the Majlis from the site inside the parliamentary “nut”. In the evening, young Russian activists, among whom were Donetsk residents, began to surround the Crimean Armed Forces with barricades. On the night of February 27, armed – according to the official version – militia seized the aircraft, hanging Russian and Crimean flags over it.
