The first signs. Which testifies to the preparation for mass departure from the occupied Crimea - the head of the Majlis

For those who settled in the Crimea during the occupation, recent explosions at the military sites on the peninsula have become a powerful blow to the stereotype of the inviolability of Crimea, says the head of the Majlis of the Crimean Tatar people, Refat Chubarov.

"For those who settled in the Crimea [during the occupation], it was a strong message that [in vain] all their hopes for saying their leaders said, Putin: they say, Crimea is a primordial Russian land and no one dies on It will encroach, and if it happens, they will arrange a judgment. And suddenly it turned out that all this was wrong, people began to ask: how to be next? " - explained Chubarov in an interview with HB.

Video of the day, according to him, such people - unlike those who are waiting for the Armed Forces - he advises to hurry to leave and not wait for the Ukrainian military to come. The head of the Majlis noted that on some grounds, this process is already beginning - in particular, he noted the increase in proposals in the real estate market in the Crimea. Such a trend was already when Russian troops began to retreat from Kiev as a result of the rigid repel of the Armed Forces.

“And when these troops began to retreat, it was a signal that influenced the mood in the Crimea. To be honest, it was unexpected for us then. That is, Russian colonists in the occupied Crimea responded to the fact that Russian troops could be beaten like a dog. And by whom? The Ukrainian army, which, as they imagined, does not exist. Then the researchers noticed in the real estate market the growth of offers [sales of housing] compared to other periods, ”Kubarov recalled.
