Klimkin responded to Zelensky’s words about Russians and Crimea

“Vladimir Zelensky says that Russians will be ashamed of the occupation of Crimea. Not in this Russia, you do not need to look at the world through pink glasses. Crimea can only be taken away - no one in Russia will voluntarily surrender it, ”the former minister wrote on Twitter.

Volodimir Zelensky even though the Russians would be weedy for the occupation of Krim. Not in the middle of Russia, not necessarily divisible into light through the eyepieces. Cream is possible only in Russia - in Russia it’s not voluntary.

Zelensky previously noted that without the "return" of Crimea to Ukraine, establishing relations with Russia is impossible. 

The head of state said that in a few years the Russian people will be “ashamed” of the annexation of Crimea.

In mid-May, Zelensky said that during negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, he raised the issue of Crimea, but noted that Russia does not want to discuss this.

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