According to her, the main result of the blockade was the displacement of Ukrainian medium-sized businesses from the markets of the peninsula and the entry of Russian businessmen.

“Blockade is blockade, but I recently met in America with people who returned from Crimea - they said that, in principle, Roshen chocolates are sold in Crimea. Returning to economic calculations, Russian business has entered there as a monopoly and there is no longer room for anything except, probably, Roshen. Therefore, I don’t see how medium-sized Ukrainian businesses can return there, or any kind of restoration of relations,” Savchenko said.
