“Up to 8 years of possible imprisonment in Ukrainian prisons, and most importantly, the very real loss of a parliamentary mandate in France - this is the price, I hope, that French MP Terry Mariani and his colleagues will pay for their visit to Crimea. At my request, the Prosecutor's Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea opened criminal proceedings under Art. 332-1 for violating the procedure for entry into the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea,” writes the deputy.
“Only the deputies did not take into account that our reaction would be harsh,” the politician threatens. – We are not going to turn a blind eye to these systematic violations - after all, the visit is not the first, French repeat offenders are already suspects in criminal cases for their last visit, which was condemned by both the international community and the French Foreign Ministry, and for which I personally awarded they are under suspicion in Strasbourg during the PACE session.”
“No matter how much skeptics grin that France will not extradite them to Ukraine if there is a guilty verdict, the main thing is that a conviction in Ukraine will automatically deprive the heroes of their warm parliamentary seats in France, and I think for a long time will deprive them of the arrogance and courage to violate international norms, even for big Putin money. I personally will do everything possible for this,” Logvinsky concluded.
