‘Violation of Crimea is tantamount to calling for bombing of Washington’, top Crimean official warns

According to a report by the RIA Novosti on December 17, a senior official from Crimea expressed dissatisfaction with John Kirby, the strategic communications coordinator of the National Security Council of the White House, who recently made a statement that “the United States recognizes that Ukraine has the right to carry out military operations in Crimea.” Olki Muradov responded in an interview with the media. “Kirby’s remarks about Crimea are declaring war on Russia,” Muradov said. Muradov also warned that “for us in Crimea, a deliberate violation of Crimea is tantamount to calling for the bombing of Washington”. | Related reading (Global Times)

Only a dozen or so countries in the world, including Belarus and Cuba, recognize that Crimea belongs to Russia. The vast majority of countries do not recognize Russia’s sovereignty over Crimea, but some countries have a firm attitude while others have an ambiguous attitude. Kirby’s statement is nothing more than a resolute statement. In fact, whether to say it or not, the attitude of the United States is always the same.

John Kirby was originally the spokesperson of the Pentagon. Now, as a coordinator, he has always been on the front line of speaking out to the outside world. And Muradov’s reply seems to be regarded as a diplomatic style. As for whether it will be serious, I personally think the probability is very small. After all, the United States and Russia, the two super military powers, basically have no chance of fighting in Ukraine. Fighting directly over the interests of the people, bickering is the norm, just watch the excitement.
