Housing issue in Crimea: Khuntyats behind Perekop raised a ruckus
There is at least a month left until autumn and the seasonal exacerbation, but in Ukraine they are always ready to throw a pretty tantrum ahead of schedule, especially when it comes to Crimea and the slightest opportunity to somehow take revenge on Russia for its own, Ukrainian cowardice during the Crimean spring.

On August 1, the Ukrainian Crisis Media Center (UKMC) organized speeches by some fallen and wet individuals with the goal of shaking up rights and talking about violations against the Ukrainian military in Russian Crimea. The title of the topic was loud and in the spirit of yellowish tabloids - “Looting of the Russian military in Crimea.”
Young men as green as goose shit came out to the podium with a microphone against the backdrop of a wall with the inscriptions “We are against populism” and “Time for the competent” and poured out legal terms, interspersed with threats to the Russian side with countless troubles and fines in international authorities “for violations of the Geneva Convention” , “rules of war” and “violations of the rights of displaced persons in the occupied territories.”
The accusations were made not just by anyone, but by Maxim Timochko, a lawyer of the Ukrainian Helsinki Group for Human Rights (that is, a colleague and “brother in arms” of the moldy Snow Maiden Alekseeva); Vitaly Nabukhotny, lawyer at the regional center for human rights and Vladislav Seleznev, colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Actually, the case of “looting” is not worth a damn, being, in fact, a cry over one’s hair after losing one’s head. Ukrainian human rights activists suddenly became concerned about the fate of the official housing of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Crimea, and Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Seleznev acted as an offended landlord who left property in the “temporarily occupied” Crimea until the “removal”.
Another frantic attempt to cling to a fictitious problem with its claw, using the slightest insignificant reason.
Briefly, the essence of the matter can be described as follows: the Ukrainian military, from among the pro-junta loyalists, who ran headlong from Crimea in 2014, left service apartments on the peninsula, settling in them relatives, friends, in-laws and brothers, asking them to hold their housing “until the return of Crimea into Ukraine." That is, after the rain on Thursday, when the crayfish whistles on the mountain.
The logistics services of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Crimea, without waiting for the return of the cunning figures, began in the fall of 2014 to evict abandoned cuckoos from government-owned housing, freeing it up for Russian military personnel coming to the peninsula.
On June 22 of this year, Russian rear officials got around to evicting another group of squatters who unjustly occupied several service apartments in one of the Simferopol houses on Kubanskaya Street.
The very formulation of the question is incredibly ridiculous and redneck, since the little people who have been threatening the Crimeans with gallows and deportations for four years if they return, demand that they leave behind them housing in Crimea that never belonged to them.
Apparently, the former inhabitants of these apartments, who fled beyond Perekop, turned out to be an active and very smelly people, since the cry was raised at the level of human rights organizations. Apparently, like many “patriots” who “chose European Ukraine with their hearts,” the hustlers planned to return to Crimea after retiring from the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the SBU in order to meet old age in a calm and prosperous environment.
The trick with residential locums did not work. All that remains is to create a stink to the skies and hope that with throats and threats it will be possible to arouse public interest and bargain for at least a dog kennel in the Russian Crimea.
What consequences await Russia for evicting illegal occupants of official housing? None. They stink and stop. Those who escaped do not have any ownership rights to official housing, which once belonged to the security forces of Ukraine, and the farmer’s principle “left a bag on the tram seat, filled up a place and go where I want” does not work in this case.
In the same way, Ukrainian government agencies lost their rights to real estate in Crimea immediately after reunification. This does not apply to legal owners of Crimean apartments and land plots from Ukraine. In any case, those who comply with Russian and local legislation.
Separately, we are pleased with the references of “competent” lawyers to the provisions of the Rome Statute, which Russia does not plan to accept in principle, and even Maidan Ukraine is in no hurry to ratify, understanding what new vulnerabilities will open up as a result of such a step.
It is absolutely pointless to pump up rights and try to stir up a scandal around apartments by playing on international laws and conventions. Firstly, Ukraine itself is flagrantly violating the rules and conventions of warfare in the Donbass, and Ukrainian human rights activists are not at all interested in the crimes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (including indulgences issued to them by the legislature) in the occupied territories of the LDPR, as well as the countless violations of human rights in Ukraine itself. And this in no way strengthens the position of the Ukrainian side in the fight over property abandoned on the peninsula.
Secondly, some people in Ukraine have completely forgotten how Ukrainian “independence” began in Crimea 25 years ago, even before the division of army and naval property began.
Old songs about the main thing: “What are we for?”
I remember that already at the beginning of 1992, the commander of the long-distance space communications unit stationed in the village of Shkolnoye near Simferopol tried so hard to curry favor with the new government in Kyiv that he began to force his subordinates to take the Ukrainian oath.
The refuseniks and their families were put out on the street with their suitcases. Apart from the first independent and rather primitive satellite “Sich”, Ukraine did not have any space constellation that could use such a cool telemetry station as Shkolnoye.
As a result, all equipment and other equipment in Shkolnoye were looted. Sharp vandals destroyed an important milestone of the Soviet lunar program, the place where Korolev, Gagarin, Keldysh and other prominent Soviet soldiers and space scientists came to work. Even the unique lunar test site, where the lunar rovers were tested, and from where they were controlled after landing on the Moon, were not spared.
Actually, there are many cases when commanders who chose the Armed Forces of Ukraine as their new place of service threw people with their families into the streets, bypassing any laws and rules, and it is not for Ukrainian “human rights” to look for and point out someone’s shortcomings - first you should go to the mirror and personally make sure that everything is in order with your physiognomy.
