The husband of Belarusian presidential candidate Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, blogger and political prisoner Sergei Tikhanovsky, said he changed his mind about Crimea after seeing how the Russian media covered the situation in Belarus.
He wrote about this in a letter from prison, the Telegram channel “Country for Life” reports. He said that “of course, Crimea should not only be Ukrainian de jure, but also de facto.”
Furthermore, according to Tikhanovsky, the fact that Russian TV channels are broadcast in Belarus is a great evil.
“Before, while watching, for example,” 60 minutes “, I had doubts about the reliability of the description of the events in Ukraine. Now, when I saw how they cover the events in Belarus, how they defame us all and support the dictator, it is quite obvious that they also slandered the Ukrainians. Of course, Crimea should not only be Ukrainian de jure, but also de facto, “wrote the blogger and political prisoner.
We will recall, Svetlana Tikhanovskaya said that she considers Crimea and Donbass temporarily occupied by Russia as Ukraine. Earlier, commenting on Russia’s occupation of Crimea, Tikhanovskaya did not express a clear position on this matter. He only said that “de jure the peninsula belongs to Ukraine, but de facto it is Russian.”
As OBOZREVATEL previously reported, Svetlana Tikhanovskaya said she would like to meet with Ukraine’s chief, Volodymyr Zelensky.
