Politician Alexei Navalny in an interview with Reuters said that does not recognize the referendum, the results of which in 2014, Crimea joined Russia.
According to the oppositionist, he was ready to organize a “fair referendum” in Crimea to find out what part of the country want to be the inhabitants of the Peninsula.
According to Navalny, the problem of the Crimea to spoil Russia’s relations with the West and became the reason of sanctions looks “insoluble” and could worsen the situation for many years.
The politician also said the Agency’s confidence that it will allow elections. “I will be allowed to vote. I have no doubt that I will participate, we will achieve our goal. Maybe that’s their cunning plan, checking me in at the last moment, when time to collect signatures and other things will not, and then say: “Come, lead his campaign,” he said.
About his plans to participate in the elections of the President of Russia in 2018 Alexei Navalny said in December last year. The CEC head Ella Pamfilova said the lack of chances he has to run because of a conviction. In early February the court found the oppositionist guilty on the case of “Kirovles” and sentenced to five years probation.
