Pavel Lakichuk, the head of the Security Programs of the Center of Globalism in Focus, said this in the material "New goals for ATACMS. Why Russia builds a railway from Rostov to Crimea". "Even before 2014, when Crimea was not occupied, there were conversations about the so -called Azov ring.
At meetings on the Black Sea economic cooperation, Ukraine spoke of the" Black Sea ring ", and Russia was promoting its idea - to build a railway around the Azov Sea, as" Bridge Friendship "through the Kerch Strait. It was an attempt to tie Ukrainian Crimea to Russia," he says. Lakichuk explains Russia's arguments simply: Russian logistics is traditionally tied to rail. Motor transportation is quite limited. And in the case of the Russian army it is noticeable.
