Yekhanurov: There is no problem with Russian in Crimea

“Crimea is a territory of Ukraine. During my last visit I had an impression that some representatives of local power forgot where they were," Prime Minister of Ukraine Yuri Yekhanurov said at a press conference in Kyiv. "I wish they understood that Crimea was inseparable part of Ukraine and its economic mechanism”.

“As regards the so-called problem of Russian language, as the deputy head of Chekhov community I may state that there is no problem with Russian in Crimea," PM stressed. "There is a problem with Ukrainian. I visited many places,” he added.

“I am convinced that all these “problems” with Russian will end on March 27,” Yuri Yekhanurov summed up.
