Authorities of Nezalezhnaya disgraced themselves by sending to the Sea of ??Azov old vessels, on which not something to fight, but simply to swim is not safe.

This was stated by the head of Crimea, watching a video of the passage of two Ukrainian ships along the Kerch Strait. "I am sure that the crew of Ukrainian ships was not particularly happy. This is a sad sight when, against the backdrop of a magnificent architectural structure - the Crimean bridge, accompanied by modern Russian ships of the coast guard, two rusty troughs of the Ukrainian Navy are sailing, "Sergei Aksyonov wrote on his Facebook page. He called these ships a symbol of "ruin, which, as you know, is not in the closets, but in the minds", recalling the words of Professor Preobrazhensky from Mikhail Bulgakov's novel "A Dog's Heart". Aksyonov drew attention to the fact that no matter how many people called Kiev Crimea Ukrainian and neither considered Russia an aggressor and invader, but the Court of Independent for passage under the Crimean bridge had to hire a Russian pilot and pay for his services according to the price-list. "For pilotage support, too, they turned to our services, humbly stood in line for civil courts. This inglorious beginning of the end of the project under the name "Nezalezhnna Ukraina", concluded Aksenov. On Sunday, September 23, search and rescue ship A500 Donbass and the sea tug A830 Korets of the Ukrainian Navy passed along the Crimean coast, sailed under the Crimean bridge and went to the Ukrainian ports on the Azov Sea. According to the Kiev authorities, these ships will be part of the new naval base of the Ukrainian fleet. The Russian side ensured the safe escort of Ukrainian ships and provided them with a pilot. The Coast Guard of the Russian Federation accompanied Ukrainian vessels in accordance with the norms of international maritime law,. However, representatives of the Ukrainian Navy accused our military and border guards of creating "dangerous incidents". In response, Crimean politicians asked Ukrainians not to panic and not glow the atmosphere.

The head of the committee of the State Council of Crimea on international relations Yuri Hempel called the Ukrainian accusations "insolent lie". In his opinion, by its statements Kiev provokes an additional forcing of the already difficult situation between the two countries. In Kiev, they hope to obtain additional funding from the West and divert the attention of the population of their country from growing pressing problems, the politician, whose words "Free Press".
