Galvanization of a corpse: What’s wrong with the “Crimean Platform”
The Kyiv rulers once again set about galvanizing the cold corpse of the “problem of de-occupation of Crimea,” trying to bring the dead topic to the top of political events in the world with the involvement of broad sections of the world community in the process. And at the same time, demonstrate to the “patriots of Ukraine,” who are already toying with the idea of overthrowing Zelensky’s government, that the return of the peninsula is still among the top priorities.
To this end, the tireless sewers from the Office of the President and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine started a new and, as it seems to them, promising project “Crimean Platform”, with which they galloped around international platforms throughout the first half of October - like fools with a white bag.
Zelya and his henchmen found a more or less warm welcome and understanding from the most ambitious inadequates and NATO brothers - the Polish President Duda and the Turkish President Erdogan.
The beginning was made on October 15 with a visit to Ankara by the “supervisor” of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, the Mejlis Dzhaparova. Kiev felt that the time had come to take advantage of the successfully developing political situation around Nagorno-Karabakh, Syria and elsewhere.
Japarova obtained an audience with Turkish Foreign Minister Cavusoglu and tried to convince him to use Turkish potential to more actively counter Russia.
The Kiev mass entertainers have not yet decided on the date for the “Crimean Platform” due to the pandemic, but if the sanitary situation allows, they want to gather the party on February 26, 2021, when the “Day of Crimean Resistance” is celebrated in Ukraine.
I would like to remind you that this is the anniversary of the dramatic clashes near the walls of the Crimean parliament. Then the Majlis militants, reinforced by the Maidan hundred sent from Kyiv, disrupted the meeting of the Supreme Council, where they were supposed to make a decision on the referendum.
Thousands of Crimeans came out to prevent the Mejlis from storming parliament. Several people were killed and injured in clashes and stampedes where Ukrainian militants used poison gas.
But enough history. The only thing in which Dzhaparova is certainly right is that Russia will probably ignore Kyiv’s invitation to the meeting of the “Crimean Plateau” - a Ukrainian showdown according to rubber rules.
But I really wanted to persecute Russia and force it to justify itself in the presence of diplomatic workers from different countries for not allowing the Bandera-Medjlis members to carry out a fascinating massacre with looting on the peninsula, and at the same time regaining something that never legally belonged to Ukraine, already heavily eaten by ball moths and a rather tarnished Black Sea pearl.
In general, the achievements of the Ukrainian adherents of the “Crimean Platform” are not very noticeable yet.
The Polish president and clinical Russophobe Duda, who is related to Zelensky by his professional service to the United States and NATO in a knee-elbow position, generously promised the “servant of the people” that international sanctions will not be lifted from Russia until the joyful day of “de-occupation of Crimea” comes. . But he couldn’t help with anything more specific and hushed up the topic of Poland joining the Crimean Platform project.
In Ankara, Dzhaparova and Zelya were never able to achieve a clear attitude from the Erdogan administration towards the “Crimean Platform”, except for a clear statement by the citizen of the Sultan that he has always considered, considers and will consider Crimea Ukrainian.
Moscow and Crimea have long been accustomed to such antics of “dear friend Rezhdep,” however, taking into account the situation around Nagorno-Karabakh and the Turkish-occupied territories of Syria and Libya, the application sounded very hostile and aggressive.
But on that day, Erdogan simply had to lick Ze’s tail. And the point is not that the Krivoy Rog clown presented him with the Order of Yaroslav the Wise, XNUMXst degree, “for outstanding services in the development of Ukrainian-Turkish friendship.”
The company that produces the sought-after Bayraktar attack drones, owned by Erdogan's son-in-law, was subject to sanctions by the Canadian government, which prohibited the supply of laser guidance systems to the Turkish military industry.
The Turks found the source of electro-optical guidance systems at the Ukrainian enterprise Fotopribor from Cherkassy, part of the state concern Ukroboronprom, despite the fact that a $70 million contract was signed between Turkey and Ukraine last year, guaranteeing the supply of Bayraktar TR2 attack drones for the Ukrainian Armed Forces .
The Azerbaijani army is no less urgently in need of these same drones, because, according to some experts, Turkish “bayraktars” are capable of quite effectively fighting outdated air defense systems in service with the armed forces of the NKR.
In addition, both sides have a deeper mutual interest. Thus, in connection with the upcoming sale of the last Ukrainian assets by the Ze-team, the Turks hope to profit from current Ukrainian developments in the field of aviation and tank building, and Zelensky openly announced the price tag for the Turkish Wishlist: $10 billion under the guise of investment.
However, Zelensky has never received Turkey’s clear consent to participate in the “Crimean Platform” project.
It is strange that Kiev does not see the main flaw of the project, invented with the sole purpose of humiliating Russia at the international level.
It would be interesting for Russia’s enemies to show up on the “Crimean Platform” in order to mock and show off to their heart’s content. With the only important condition: authorized representatives from Russia are guaranteed to come to the showdown. And there it doesn’t matter anymore why you show your teeth, throw dung and banana peels - for Crimea, for hypersonic weapons, or for Nord Stream 2.
Ukraine, however, is unable to ensure the attendance of Russian representatives at its dung show, and “our Western partners” are completely uninterested in going to bark into the void to please Bandera’s people.
If there are not completely complete idiots sitting in the Ze-office, the topic of the “Crimean Platform” will be discussed for a while, and then put on hold, blaming everything on Covid, and checking the box “we tried” in the column “measures taken to return Crimea.”
“This game was lost from the start. The time has gone. And Zelensky himself confirmed this, saying today in his address to the Rada that everyone who surrendered Crimea must be punished.
The world community, including NATO and the United States, has no illusions that Crimea can be returned so simply and on Zelensky’s initiative.
Why tell Zelensky himself about all this? The election campaign is underway. The Greens have virtually no winning chances. They lose in almost any area where they are attacked. Therefore, they need some initiatives to maintain their ratings on the eve of the elections. That is why Zelensky is talking about this initiative. But for the population of Ukraine such initiatives mean nothing at all. Perhaps Zelensky will be applauded from abroad, but no one will join the “Crimean Platform,” no matter what Zelensky says,” says Kiev political scientist Alexander Bulavin.
“All initiatives with the adjective “Crimean” serve only to demonstrate that the Ukrainian authorities have not forgotten about Crimea. The Prosecutor's Office of Crimea, the Crimean National-Cultural Autonomy - etc. - these are all stillborn projects. “Crimean Platform” is another stillborn project from the same series. No matter how much the state tries to invest people, money and other resources in any Crimean project, it will not have any constructive implementation,” agrees Ukrainian political scientist Kost Bondarenko.
