@jikamos so once again you've simply resorted to nothing more than playground insults, no surprise. Too many YouTube videos I think, a little more time in the real world might help

@Jugge83 the western world only intervened in Yugoslavia when the Serbs began the genocide, they have only themselves to blame

@Pythoner No, UN reports and interviews with the Tatars say complete opposite, in fact many ethnic Russians who were already living in Crimea have actually complained about the large influx turning up and pricing them out of the property market and businesses

@Pythoner mostly UN reports and comments from actual Russians I've discussed this with You're information I suspect is just an invention of your mind unless you actual census data. As for "anyone is free to move there" give it a try, then you'll find settling in Russia isn't as straightforward as you think

@Pythoner hold on you're the one making claims regarding large movements of people to Crimea yet it's obvious that you have no evidence of this. Also no former citizens of the Soviet Union don't have the right to live in Russia, they have limited visa free access but that's all. Take my advice and stop making crap up, some of us can spot it a mile away

@Pythoner yes I said the preportion of Russians in Crimea is higher now this is based on several things, the first being the requirement of Russia for people living in Crimea to become Russian citizens, the second being reports in the Russian media regarding Russian citizens moving to Crimea and buying property and again UN reports of Ukrainians having to flee Crimea many of which were ethnic Tatars. At no point have I claimed it's census data. Anyone can visit a Russian consulate website and see the entry restrictions on citizens of former Soviet republics where it's clear that they cannot live and work in Russia as you claim. It's actually not unusual to see news reports in the Russian media of arrests being made of these people who claim are free to live in Russia 😄 You'll have to send me a link to this repatriation program, as you're such an expert on Russia you'll know exactly where such announcements are made 😄 The offer of Russian citizenship to Ukrainians in eastern Ukraine is common knowledge, but hundreds of thousands last year? Unlikely

@Pythoner No my claims are not anecdotal they are based on actual reports. Russia considers Crimea to be part of its territory, I suggest you look into Russian residency requirements. Ukrainians statistics on visits to Russia are meant to prove what? No there is not a large number of Ukrainian tourists visiting Crimea, completely made up by yourself. Editing your original comment now to hide your mistakes? Russia has a quota system for work permits, so there are limits to the numbers allowed from any country. Citizens from former Soviet republics do not have an automatic right to work in Russia as you've previously implied. I'm not going to waste my time looking for a repatriation program that obviously doesn't exist, if you knew the first thing about Russia you'd know the likelihood of such a program is laughable

@Pythoner I've already explained much of the information I've given comes from. Ok I've also covered Ukrainians applying for Russian citizenship, Putin has offered Russian citizenship to Ukrainian citizens, this old news that was aimed at people living in the disputed east. Big clue that these Ukrainian tourists are actually from the disputed east also is that they enter via Krasnodar. The only simplified process for obtaining Russian citizenship is those who are considered ethnic Russians. A company can arrange work permits? And your point is? I think you're confused about the relationship between Russia and Belarus, they are still subject to visa requirements just as many other former Soviet republics. Border control is more relaxed between the two, but that's about all So we're posting news articles now? https://jamestown.org/program/demographic-transformation-of-crimea-forced-migration-as-part-of-russias-hybrid-strategy/ How about a UN report on the situation in Crimea? https://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=22140 I can look into the alleged repatriation program, I'm skeptical about its actual implementation. Interesting fact about Crimea, it has twice lost its autonomous status, first time it was taken by Stalin the second time more recently by Putin. Things in Crimea are not as you would like people to believe.

@mpireoutdoors5274 two Russian people just happened to take a two day trip to the UK? 😂

@artemg9753 Skripal is in hiding and has made a recovery. Do you have any idea how difficult it is for a Russian to get a UK visa? They were both seen twice in Salisbury and both left on the day of the poisoning. Skripal's was not under UK surveillance, but traces of the poison was found at their hotel
1
@artemg9753 yes because it actually happened, they purposely used agents from Russia as a warning to others.... This is how it works in Russia
1
@artemg9753 warning about what? You know exactly what I mean by this. How do I know this? Litvinenko, Nestmov and Navalny just to name a few but there have been plenty of others.
