In early April, the aggressor’s propaganda once again began playing the same old refrain about “interaction with Belarus”, talking about a phantom “hundreds of thousands of Belarusian tourists” who allegedly “came to Crimea” in 2024, but in fact were not noticed anywhere except in the occupation “press”.
They also remembered the fake “direct railway connection between Crimea and Minsk”, which the Crimean “talking heads” have been constantly promising for the past few years, and clearly intend to continue promising, right up to the deoccupation of the peninsula, despite the fact that the Lukashenko regime clearly has no intention of taking this illegal step.
And therefore, at the next “television bridge” between the criminal “state council” of the occupiers and Minsk, nothing new, much less anything close to reality, could be heard. The occupiers stated that some “deputies of the Minsk City Council” allegedly participated in this show, but for some reason they were “embarrassed” to name their names.
In addition to the Crimean collaborators, the “chief Belarusian” Roman Chegrinets and the propagandist Anastasia Gridchina, among the participants of this show, only the infamous agent of the Russian special services Andrei Lopatsky was named as a certain “director of the socio-cultural center” “Crimean community”.
Let us recall that earlier Lopatsky was called by the aggressor’s propaganda nothing less than “the authorized representative of the Republic of Crimea in Belarus”, but now such a “loud title” of this provocateur “has disappeared somewhere”.
Earlier, we described Lopatsky’s Minsk actions against his own people, in the role of such Kremlin-controlled structures as the Moscow “international fund for social and economic support of cultural and artistic figures” and the “public chamber of the Union State”.
On their behalf, Lopatsky participated in promoting a number of criminal initiatives of the “Russian world” directed against Belarusian citizens, and a number of “initiatives” were so “peaceful” that even Lukashenko’s punishers began to investigate them for extremism.
