“The moderator of the forum in the words“ Russian Crimea ”cut me off, not allowing me to fully voice her speech.
Most likely, the decision was made on the basis of a complaint from the Ukrainian side, ”he told RIA Novosti.
In November 2019, Crimean State Duma deputy Ruslan Balbek said that the Ukrainian delegation was trying to disrupt the speech of the Russian representative at the forum on minority issues at the UN, which was held in Geneva.
Crimea became a Russian region after a referendum was held there in March 2014, in which most of the inhabitants of the peninsula spoke out in favor of reunification with Russia.
