Doctor of Political Sciences Alexander Semchenko said this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“When this whole camarilla came to power on February 22, Crimea remained part of Ukraine for another month,” the expert recalled.
In his opinion, not only Alexander Turchynov, who was acting President of Ukraine after the coup d’etat, is to blame for the loss of Crimea by Ukraine, but also the current President Petro Poroshenko. The political scientist also recalled how Turchynov became chairman of the Verkhovna Rada.
“The first candidate nominated for the post of chairman of the Verkhovna Rada and, according to their logic, acting president, was Petro Poroshenko, who recused himself in favor of Turchynov. Why this happened is clear: being an interim president is worse than being a permanent one. He understood that he could lose the rating that he had suddenly built up. But this is an irresponsible position - he had the opportunity to intervene, he could have taken full control of Ukraine along with Crimea and peaceful Donbass, but he did not want to do this and avoided responsibility. Therefore, he is an irresponsible type who does not deserve to rule us,” summed up Semchenko.
