Under Article 196 par. 3 of Russia’s Criminal Procedural Code, the psychiatric expertise of the defendant is a must when there is doubt that she is sane or able to independently defend her rights and…

Moscow to drill for fresh water under Azov Sea, not to help Crimea but to back its claims
Moscow to drill for fresh water under Azov Sea, not to help Crimea but to back its claims

Reservoirs and wells on the peninsula have been drying up since 2014 (Sprotyv.info, April 2, 2021), and this situation has deteriorated recently both…

One Muslim woman's fight against Russia's persecution of her people in occupied Crimea
“I only feel fear in one instance – when people get arrested.
This is what brings tears to my eyes. Not only the arrest itself but probably also my powerlessness and because it is hardly possible to provide help in this country [Russia].
Because we all know perfectly well: however competently, correctly, and meticulously one approaches a particular case – if it has an orderer, there certainly…

Seizing Ukrainian water for Russian-occupied Crimea #1 task for Putin, Illarionov says
Seizing Ukrainian water for Russian-occupied Crimea #1 task for Putin, Illarionov says
Vladimir Putin has long made clear that he doesn’t believe that Ukraine has a right to exist as an independent country, Andrey Illarionov says. But his “number one task” in any military move against Ukraine now is to seize water supplies in southeastern Ukraine for water-short Russian-occupied Crimea.
The Russian economist says that Putin, if he achieves that, will likely order Russian forces…

Speaking to a meeting on the seventh anniversary of his Anschluss of Crimea, Vladimir Putin said that the Bolsheviks had handed over “significant territories and geopolitical space to quasi-state formations” known to others in the past as the union republics of the USSR and now as the post-Soviet states.”
“It is difficult to say how the residents of the 14 ‘quasi-state formations,‘ which are…

Forced migration in Crimea as part of Russia's 'hybrid' strategy
Forced migration in Crimea as part of Russia’s ‘hybrid’ strategy
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Decree No. 201 came into effect on March 20, 2021. The executive edict adds Crimea and Sevastopol to “the list of Russia’s border territories where foreign citizens, stateless persons, and foreign legal entities cannot own land.” As such, non-Russians, including Ukrainian citizens who still reside in occupied Crimea but who refused to obtain a Russian passport,…

Putin claims mounting crisis in occupied Crimea can be reversed by fresh water supplies under Azov Sea
On December 17, Vladimir Putin said that the mounting water crisis in Russia-occupied Crimea, a crisis that means most residents get water of low quality only four hours a day, can be solved by drilling into what he said are enormous supplies of fresh water lying under the Azov Sea.
Such an enormously expensive project, typical of the giantism of the Soviet and Putin eras and unlikely ever to be…

Russia's occupation of Crimea led to Ukraine losing 75% of its 2013 GDP
Russia’s occupation of Crimea led to Ukraine losing 75% of its 2013 GDP
“The assessment of losses is necessary to seek compensation for these losses through international courts, obliging the Russian Federation to pay the corresponding amounts or arresting the assets of entities involved in the occupation, in Ukraine or even abroad,” the CES said.
According to the Center, the $135 billion is the direct loss of assets, which includes the land value on the Crimean…
