Kazarin, who fled Crimea, took a year or two to “return” the peninsula
The reintegration of Crimea into Ukraine is supposedly possible in the very near future.
This was stated on the UkrLife internet channel by Vladimir Kazarin, a Crimean scientist-turned-defector and rector of the clone of the Taurida National University in Kyiv, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Kazarin is confident that Russia is plunging into a crisis, which will contribute to this “return.”
“First of all, I am convinced that we will return. And we will not have it the same way as our wonderful fraternal Baltic countries, which have been achieving this for almost 60 years, waiting for this, achieving and waiting. It will be earlier, now the world is changing faster, and it is becoming more and more globalized, and therefore it is impossible to live your own life in one particular region, not paying attention to other centers of power. This is impossible.
I think that as a result of the overall work and the deepest crisis into which Putin’s Russia is increasingly plunging with all these troubles in oil, gas and so on, at the moment I would make the following forecast: with the active assistance of world politics and the active Ukraine’s participation in it, I think, the conversation about solving this in a little over two years is realistic. But I don’t see this active foreign policy activity of solidarity with the centers of power on the part of Ukraine today,” Kazarin said.
