First Deputy Chairman of the State Council of the Republic of Crimea Grigory Ioffe urged not to make a sensation out of basic security measures.
“The document does not contain words such as wall or fence. It says “barrier.” This is a common border management practice. There's nothing special about it. Due to the fact that this border has a certain status, there is a great terrorist threat, there is a risk of penetration of people with undesirable intentions for Crimea. These are ordinary security measures. There is no need to put any political meaning into this. Border guards know where the most vulnerable points are, through which there is a risk of penetration. Including like the incident when Mikheil Saakashvili freely crossed the Ukrainian border,” Ioffe told the publication
The publication also notes that, according to FSB reports, “undesirable elements” regularly enter the peninsula from Ukraine, and in the last year alone several sabotage groups working for the Ukrainian special services have been detained.
“However, the Ukrainian media were most alarmed by the construction of the fence, according to which the construction of the fence will be carried out... by the Ukrainians themselves,” MK points out. – About two thousand workers from Nezalezhnaya have allegedly already crossed the Russian-Ukrainian border and moved into dormitories. There is no work in Ukraine, but here there is such a profitable contract. True, no one could confirm this information at the official level.”
