Officials in Crimea have lost their business blackmail tool
The State Duma today adopted in the third reading a law that will extend until 2023 the transition period in Crimea and Sevastopol for registering real estate and land plots according to Russian laws.
At the moment, “50% of Sevastopol and Crimean residents did not have time to do this,” said State Duma deputy Dmitry Belik, speaking from the podium, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to him, the end of the transition period was used by some officials as a tool to blackmail businesses.
“One example is that literally two months ago in Sevastopol, a serious official was detained for a bribe, who deliberately delayed the consideration of issues regarding the registration of land plots for entrepreneurs. Because this period ended on January 1, 2019,” Belik said.
