The Ukrainian side is invited to officially recognize the Crimea as part of the Russian Federation as one of the options for resolving the armed conflict in the Donbass.. This was told by the representative of Kiev in the security subgroup of the tripartite contact group in Minsk Yevhen Marchuk. However, he did not disclose the names of those who come up with such initiatives.. “I also participate in two international platforms on Donbass, then at the coffee break pauses they say that if Ukraine officially refuses, removes the Crimean problem, then this can be a serious platform for resolving issues in the Donbas,” he told television channel 112.. Moreover, he noted, no one guarantees the complete resolution of the situation in the mining region.. "That is, refuse officially from the Crimea and then it will be possible, they say that this is not a final decision, they say, this is a private. But not private individuals are talking to me, "added Mr. Marchuk. The Ukrainian representative didn’t name the nominees “surrender” of the peninsula in exchange for the settlement of the conflict in the Donbass. However, something like this has already been proposed by the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Radical Party, Andrei Artemenko.. I remember in February of last year the newspaper The New York Times wrote that he developed a plan for making peace between Ukraine and Russia (as if the Russian Federation is at war with someone other than terrorists in the SAR) and lifting sanctions from Moscow. It was reported that the document was handed over to the then adviser to US President Donald Trump Michael Flynn.. Supposedly, according to the plan, it was envisaged to withdraw the mythical Russian troops from the Donbass and hold a referendum in Ukraine, where it is necessary to answer the question about putting the Crimea in the "rent" of Russia for 50 or 100 years. Artemenko himself later justified that the concept was developed by several parliamentarians, including opposition ones, and there was no “lease” in it.. But I would like to know from Marchuk: "Name, sister, name!".
