“I immediately want to recall the common expression, paraphrasing it a bit: not all the virus bypassed! To begin with, representatives of the country, which is now in first place in terms of the number of patients with coronavirus, give advice to other countries on how to deal with the pandemic and what “benefits” to get from it, ”the deputy noted.
According to him, the only thing that can be agreed on from all that has been proposed is that in Ukraine “it’s time to stop the bloodshed”, and this appeal, as the parliamentarian emphasized, needs to be sent to Kiev.
Earlier, three ex-US ambassadors in Kiev - Stephen Pifer, John Herbst and William Taylor - in an NPR publication proposed using the coronavirus pandemic as an opportunity to exert pressure on Russia and “return” Crimea to Ukraine.
Crimea became the Russian region after a referendum held in March 2014, in which the majority of the inhabitants of the peninsula voted to reunite with Russia.
