Zelensky's appointee threatens Crimea with “de-occupation”
There will be no resumption of water supplies to Crimea until the “return” of the peninsula to Ukraine.
The fake “representative of the President of Ukraine in Crimea” Anton Korinevich stated this in his blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
At the same time, the official emphasized that next week members of the Verkhovna Rada Human Rights Committee will come to the Kherson region - to the border with Crimea and to the dam built on the North Crimean Canal.
“In connection with the appearance in the media of further speculation regarding the possible restoration of water supply to Crimea and the related “visit of a commission from Kyiv,” we note that this information does not correspond to reality. On February 11-12, a visiting meeting of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Committee on Human Rights will be held in the Kherson region in order to familiarize itself with issues related to the temporarily occupied territories of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.
During this visit, a visit to the Kalanchak checkpoint is planned; during this visit, it is logical to also visit the dam of the blocked section of the North Crimean Canal, since the dam is located in close proximity to the checkpoint. No one is talking about any restoration of water supply; water from the canal will go to Crimea only after de-occupation. No water until de-occupation. The away meeting of the Committee has nothing to do with the issue of water supply, but is intended to familiarize itself with the situation on the administrative border with the temporarily occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea,” Korinevich said.
At the same time, Korinevich’s predecessor in this post, Boris Babin, doubted the veracity of his words.
“Of course, in February, human rights activists will only check the dams. I’ll go re-read the regulations on the committee; land reclamation should definitely be there somewhere. Or, perhaps, it is the dam that is the main humanitarian object of the Kherson region and the most important thing for displaced people.
But seriously, does anyone else have questions about this situation? So, it will be interesting to hear about “the need for concessions for the sake of the release of political prisoners” and about “the humanitarian needs of the Black Sea Fleet sailors who have nothing to wash themselves with.” Straight from the dam. One week left,” Babin wrote on his blog.
Previously, former Deputy Minister of “Occupied Territories Affairs” Georgiy Tuka stated that the real purpose of the recent visit Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan could mediate in Kyiv to restore water supplies to Crimea.
