Shoigu told what would have happened in Crimea without Russia – RBK

Shoigu said that without Russia, Ukrainian neo-fascists would have arrived in Crimea

If Crimea had not become part of Russia in 2014, Ukrainian neo-fascists, ultranationalists, extremists and mercenaries from Europe and the United States would have come there. About it stated Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu in an interview with Arguments and Facts.

“If all this public – Ukrainian neo-fascists, ultranationalists, extremists and mercenaries from European countries and the United States – arrived then after the coup d’etat in Kiev, as they were going to, in Crimea, – I assure you, no one would have thought enough,” Shoigu said.

In his opinion, there was “such a hearth on the peninsula that it would not have been extinguished by the whole world.” “We still see the consequences of the attempts of these non-people, together with the Ukrainian troops, to establish their own order in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions,” added the head of the Ministry of Defense.
