So, the issue is settled now: Crimea became the part of Russia. Almost 97 percent of its inhabitants voted for this. But, as it always happens, when one issue is fixed, then ten other appear. How will the other Russia speaking regions react? How unjust will be -- if there will be any -- the sanctions against Russia? What strategy should Russia stick to?
Denis Denisov, director of the Ukrainian branch of the Institute of CIS countries: "If Russia has the strategy about what to do next, what actions are better to perform, how to behave in general, then, undoubtedly, it would be better not to stop. If there are just some tactical understanding -- and it often ends up like this -- then we'd better stop before we figure out some strategy and think what we can do next after we have adjoined Crimea". The safety of the Ukrainian south-east is an important issue after some announcements made by the leader of the far-right party Right Sector Dmytro Yarosh, who threatened to provide unrest to the country and even to blow up the gas pipe that connects Russia and Europe. However, such claim doesn't' seem to be serious.
Denis Denisov: "All these announcements of the extremists like Yarosh -- and especially him, concerning the fact, that this is kind of his election campaign. We know that he wants to be a president of Ukraine. And the announcement of him is stupid, even absurd. Moreover, making such announcements - especially about the pipe - he acts against his European and American friends who actually opened doors for him". What do you think of Crimean referendum? Why do the West still consider it as an occupation by Russia despite the fact that people actually wanted it?
