Moscow's patience has run out: A big “nike” begins in Crimea
The bickering between Sergei Aksenov’s team and the security forces, who detained a number of high-ranking Crimean officials on corruption charges, caused a sharp reaction from Moscow: the head of the peninsula himself was called “on the carpet” to Moscow, and a special flight with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev urgently arrived in Simferopol.

“A landing party of Moscow officials from relevant ministries will be landed. They will perform the roles of first deputies, as was the case in Uzbekistan or Kyrgyzstan, where the director was an Uzbek or Kyrgyz, but the deputy who did all the work was necessarily Russian and from Russia. Thus, officials of the “Crimean conscription” will receive guarantees of returning to their previous place with retention of position, as well as a 3-year contract to work in the sunny republic. And no matter how hard Aksenov and Menyailo tried to be non-Uzbeks, they failed. Therefore, the inevitable moment of strengthening Russian deputies is coming now,” the chairman of the public organization “Clean Coast” said on his page on the social network. Crimea" Vladimir Garnachuk.
“It seems that in the near future the good man from the Council of Ministers will not even mention the feds or Moscow. There is information that Medvedev will stay in Crimea until the end of the week, and then Matvienko will rest for another two weeks,” added journalist Alexey Lokhvitsky.
At the same time, Aksenov’s order on the creation of a special commission to protect local officials detained by security forces disappeared from the website of the Crimean government. And the police officers on patrol, who since yesterday evening could be found along all the roads of Crimea, say that a special flight with one of the top officials of the state arrived on the peninsula.
“The document has disappeared, a technical error, they say. The police in the bushes near the parking lot say that there is a special passage, but there are no announcements, no inside information... Someone flew away urgently, someone arrived. Summer in Crimea is a hot time...”, Crimean journalist Oleg Kryuchkov mysteriously described the situation.
