Chubarov started a public squabble with Kunitsyn over Tatar autonomy
The leader of the Majlis group banned in the Russian Federation, ex-deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Refat Chubarov criticized the former Prime Minister of Crimea and ex-governor of Sevastopol, and now adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Sergei Kunitsyn.
The reason for Chubarov’s dissatisfaction was Kunitsyn’s recent speech on the air of the Majlis TV channel ATR, where he questioned the idea of “Crimean Tatar autonomy” lobbied by the Mejlis members, the correspondent of PolitNavigator reports.
“Yesterday, after I saw an indignant discussion on social networks, I listened to your entire program with Sergei Kunitsyn (former Prime Minister of Crimea and ex-governor of Sevastopol, now adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine - ed.) and noticed that he, like Putin, avoids the word “Navalny”, I am not now comparing “Navalny” with the “Majlis of the Crimean Tatar people”. But some of our politicians simply take on the habit of those rulers who think that not saying something eliminates the phenomenon itself.
Yesterday I did not see him speak even once about the meeting of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people with the leaders of our state, about the position of the Mejlis. He always talks collectively about the Crimean Tatars, somehow completely avoiding the designation of the Mejlis as a subject of the indigenous people of Crimea, as a representative body, it seemed to me that there was some reason for this too,” Chubarov complained.
