Mejlis lost support in Crimea
The attempt of the Mejlis members to gain a foothold in the new composition of the Verkhovna Rada is just the desire of the leaders of an organization banned in the Russian Federation to remain funded.
Former Verkhovna Rada deputy Alexey Zhuravko writes about this on his blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“It is a well-known fact that since the 90s, two people - he, Mustafa Dzhemilev, and his partner Refat Chubarov - have been sitting in legislative seats. And now Mustafa says that “...at a minimum, we will have five deputies, and maybe more.” When he says “with us,” he means, of course, himself, R. Chubarov and a narrow circle of his paid assistants, who for some reason are called “the Majlis of the Crimean Tatar people,” the politician wrote.
At the same time, he recalled, the Crimean Tatar people continue to live in Crimea as they always did.
“Many in Crimea have already forgotten that the Western agent Mustafa was once on the loose there. The Crimean Tatar people did not elect any Majlis. And this organization itself is needed by cronies Mustafa and Refat only so that the accounting departments of the US State Department and the European Union-NATO have grounds to write off dollars and euros not to several individuals, but to a non-existent collegial body,” writes Zhuravko.
