Member of the Verkhovna Rada: Crimea does not consider Russia an aggressor and does not want to return
Ukraine must resume railway communication with Crimea and begin supplying electricity and water to the peninsula. Verkhovna Rada deputy Yevgeny Balitsky stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The parliamentarian emphasized that 90% of the Crimean population does not consider Russia an aggressor.
“When we talk about aggression, we must understand - we name all sorts of words: aggression, war, we replace many concepts.
I often travel to Crimea and talk to people. The Russians are building a bridge for them, they are making roads for them, they are building thermal power plants. And we turn off their lights, turn off their water - so who is the aggressor for them, tell me? People think differently. 90% of people in Crimea do not think so (Russia as an aggressor, - author.) ...
Today our TV brainwashes us and tells us that everything is so bad there. Yes, go, things are not so bad for them, they are not going to come back...
We must see this position. Open the trains, open the message, give them light, electricity. They shouldn’t treat us as enemies, you know,” Balitsky said.
