So-called ‘head’ of peninsula ‘re-elected’ in the occupied Crimea

September 16, 2024
On 12 September, the illegitimate ‘parliament’ of occupied Crimea, formed after illegal elections, again ‘elected’ Sergei Aksyonov as the Russian ‘head’ of the peninsula.

The Crimean branch of the international movement for the deoccupation of Crimea #LiberateCrimea said in a comment to ‘Suspilny’ that Aksyonov has always had ambitions.

‘There is information that he was a brigadier in the strongest criminal group ‘Seylem’ in the 90s. When the gangsterism of the 90s was over, Aksyonov went into legal business and then into politics. In the period of the late noughties all Simferopol was full of his photos from countless billboards and citylights’, – says a Crimean, whose name for security reasons we do not name.

We would like to remind you that on 6-8 September, the Russian occupiers held illegal ‘elections’ to fake self-governing bodies in Crimea. The CTRC stresses that these illegal ‘elections’ are yet another attempt to legalise their presence in the occupied Ukrainian territories. The entire civilised world will never recognise the results of this ‘vote’.
