Kunitsyn: Ukraine could have saved Crimea if I had been appointed prime minister after the Maidan victory

Kunitsyn himself stated this on air on the Rada TV channel.

“If I had gone there earlier, right after the Maidan victory,” the deputy complained.
According to him, there was still a chance to “reformat the government.” Kunitsyn claims that his candidacy in Simferopol was perceived “better than someone coming from Svoboda or Batkivshchyna.”
“But while we were thinking for a long time here, a military operation began,” Kunitsyn said about the politicians in Kyiv.
In his opinion, Ukraine could save Crimea by giving it maximum powers - in fact, within the framework of the 1992 Constitution.
“Return to the law on the division of powers. Give up everything except sovereignty. Unfortunately, I was not heard,” says Kunitsyn.
“There were prerequisites for me to return there as prime minister, if not for the situation with these little green men. If it weren’t for the occupation, there would be every reason to return there and help pull Crimea out of the hole in which it found itself,” the deputy once again lamented.
According to Kunitsyn, he remembers Crimea every day.
