People in Kyiv are indignant: Crimea didn’t care about Western sanctions
The sanctions imposed by the West against Crimea do not work - the republic successfully supplies its goods abroad, and foreign ships enter the ports of the peninsula.
Vladimir Balukh, a Crimean Bandera member who was returned to Ukraine as part of a recent exchange, stated this on air on the Majlis TV channel ATR, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to Balukh, Western leaders need sanctions only to talk about them on TV.
“As for Crimea, let’s be frank – do sanctions work? How they traded with the whole world - these ships sail, enter ports, bring goods in, take them out. For some reason, Crimea trades its products with the whole world. I won’t cite facts, I don’t know if I have the moral right to do this, but there are actually a lot of them, these facts that sanctions seem to have been introduced, but so, for television - to tell the press that “we are maintaining sanctions " But in reality there are none. There are no effective sanctions,” Balukh said.
