Co dokładnie Aleksiej Nawalny powiedział o Krymie. Są to poglądy, z którymi można się nie zgadzać, ale da się z nimi dyskutować. Poniżej fragment omówienia wywiadu, jakiego w październiku 2014 r. Aleksiej Nawalny szefowi radia Echo Moskwy Aleksiejowi Wenediktowowi, a w komentarzach linki do oryginalnej wersji wywiadu (nagranie i transkrypcja). The opposition activist, who is under house arrest as part of a criminal investigation, said in the first part of the interview from his home, broadcast Wednesday night, that Crimea — which Russia annexed from Ukraine in March — will remain part of Russia and will never again in the foreseeable future become part of Ukraine. Asked by Ekho Moskvy host and editor-in-chief Alexei Venediktov to share his views on the popular slogan among Russian supporters of the annexation — Crimea is ours — Navalny initially appeared to evade the question, saying that Crimea belongs to the people who live in Crimea. When pressed for a direct answer, he added that Crimea, of course, now de facto belongs to Russia. I think that despite the fact that Crimea was seized with egregious violations of all international regulations, the reality is that Crimea is now part of Russia, he said. Lets not deceive ourselves. And I would also strongly advise Ukrainians not to deceive themselves. Navalny said he would not return Crimea to Ukraine if he were to become the president of Russia. Is Crimea some sort of sausage sandwich to be passed back and forth? I dont think so, he said. Crimea was part of Russia under the U.S.S.R. until Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev transferred it in 1954 to the fellow Soviet republic of Ukraine. At the time, when the countries were both part of the Soviet Union, the move was a symbolic one. Navalny told Ekho Moskvy that Crimeas legal status could be bolstered by holding a fair referendum on secession. Ahead of the annexation this spring, a hastily prepared ballot was held amid the heavy presence of Russian troops on the peninsula. From the viewpoint of politics and restoring justice, what needs to be done now in Crimea is to hold a normal referendum, he said. Not the kind they had, but a normal one. And whatever the people decide will be how it should be. Navalny did not specify what he would consider a fair referendum in Russia, which he has repeatedly accused of rigging its balloting results.
