“This is just nonsense of a person who has nothing to do with Crimea. The fate of the Crimea was determined by the Crimeans, who came to a referendum and voted for the return of Crimea to Russia, ”Hempel explained.

He emphasized that “today it would be better for Ukraine to think about how to establish good neighborly relations with Russia as a whole and not waste its energy on such statements.”

According to him, this is only an “image of activity”.

“In all such statements, there are continuous illogisms, so I believe that this simply does not need to be paid attention to,” concluded Hempel.

Earlier, Korinevich announced Ukraine’s unpreparedness for the “return” of Crimea.

According to him, first you need to decide who will work in local and central authorities.

Crimea became the Russian region after a referendum held there in March 2014, in which most residents spoke out for reunification with Russia.
