Answering the question whether Ukraine had the opportunity to defend Crimea, she recalled the March report of the Ukrainian Minister of Defense in parliament.
“It turned out that in total we had about 40 thousand people in the army, of which only 6 thousand can be called “combat ready,” Dzhemilev recalled. – Military equipment has been stolen, many tanks and planes, even without engines. In such a state, fighting with a one and a half million Russian army, almost 30 times larger than ours, was, of course, of little prospect. Although history knows examples of quite successful wars with occupiers with superior military strength. Türkiye in 1919–1923 defended the integrity of the country in a war simultaneously with five countries. True, at that time there were no “Grads”, “Smerchs”, “Bumblebees” and other nasty things of mass murder of people.”
