“Sanctions are the wrong way to find a solution (the situation around Crimea. - RT ), they were not even sanctioned by the UN, they go against German and Russian economic interests. Therefore, they need to be urgently stopped, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.
Koiter also noted that the information disseminated about the Russian peninsula by some media is unreliable.
Earlier, the head of Crimea Sergey Aksyonov said that the decision to impose anti-Russian sanctions by the leadership of the United States and other Western countries on the incident in the Kerch Strait is inadequate.
Crimea became the Russian region after the referendum held there in March 2014, in which the majority of residents spoke in favor of reunification with Russia.
