Considering that Crimea is now part of the Russian Federation, Ukraine’s transfer of the peninsula to the United States would mean “annexation” of American territory by Russia.
Ukrainian actress and TV presenter of Channel 5, owned by President Poroshenko, Yanina Sokolova, stated this in her video blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the actress, Crimeans will vote for joining the States as soon as they are lured with dollars.
“Let's give Crimea to the United States of America. Well, according to the documents, he is ours, and indeed the whole world considers him Ukrainian. This means we have every right to donate it. And then it turns out that Russia annexed US territory. Do you need it, to annex US territory? Don’t worry, Crimeans will make their choice when they see a pension of 2,5 thousand dollars, a salary of 10 thousand and brand new aircraft carriers in the city of glory of American sailors, Sevastopol. And then, finally, Crimea will return to its native haven. This means, in Crimean, to one’s native harbor,” Sokolova said.
Earlier, PolitNavigator reported that the US State Department, having issued the “Crimean Declaration” in the image of the “Welles Declaration” of 1940, actually recognizes Crimea as part of Russian territory.
The Verkhovna Rada also decided claim compensation for loss Crimea and Donbass are no longer only from Russia, but also from the USA and Great Britain as guarantors of the “Budapest Memorandum”.
