In recent days, in the occupiers’ “Crimean” propaganda, such a character as Ildar Rezyapov, who calls himself the “chairman of the all-Russian social movement”, “veterans of Russia”, has become “frequent”.
A native of the Bashkir Sterlitamak, Rezyamov is a typical “oppositionist” controlled by the Russian special services with the features of a swindler, and since 2014 he has been trying to “find himself a chair” in the occupied Crimea for a couple of years, but quite unsuccessfully.
What is interesting about Rezyapov’s current “Crimean tour” is not his criminal mantras regarding the glorification of Russian aggression, and not even the tragicomic nature of the situation when there were refutations of the assumptions that Rezyapov was allegedly a Crimean Tatar.
It is noteworthy that the occupiers allow Rezyapov, who was “put on TV”, to “criticize certain shortcomings” with a direct allusion to Sergei Aksenov’s “shortcomings”. Rezyapov also recently PR on the demand to “nationalize the property of Sofia Rotaru” that supposedly the collaborators in the “authority” “do not want to do’.
Thus, it is possible that in this situation they decided to move from the “storm in a teacup” operation, traditional for the special services of the aggressor, with fake “oppositionists”, to the “receiver” operation in this situation.
