According to the political scientist, it is customary for Ukrainian officials to say this.
“They have such a job, what can you do.
In fact, no one will remember this.
We talked well.
It is necessary to inspire hope and confidence in the population that their army is invincible,” Dudchak said.
He also noted that people in Crimea are accustomed to such statements.
“The sound of the surf can also be intrusive, but people get used to it ... How much has been said since 2014, how much has been done.
And blackouts were arranged, and the water was turned off, and blockades were introduced.
So the Crimeans are accustomed to such statements and are unlikely to take them seriously, ”concluded the interlocutor of RT.
Earlier, the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, Andriy Yermak, in an interview for The Guardian, said that in 2023 it is planned to “defeat Russia” and “return” the territory of Crimea.
The head of the Crimean parliament committee on public diplomacy and interethnic relations, Yuri Gempel, called the statements of the Kyiv authorities aggressive and crazy.
The Kremlin stated that Crimea is an integral part of Russia and claims to Russian territory will receive a proper response.
Crimea became a Russian region after a referendum held there in March 2014: the majority of residents voted for reunification with Russia.
