Official of the Ukrainian OP Chistikov threatened to jail 200 thousand residents of Crimea
The Ukrainian leadership is discussing possible changes to the law on collaboration activities due to a lack of space in prisons. This is reported Deputy Permanent Representative of the President of Ukraine (PR) Volodymyr Zelensky in the so-called “Autonomous Republic of Crimea” Denis Chistikov on the air of the First Western TV channel.
The official said that according to current legislation, people who do business in Crimea are not subject to the Ukrainian law on collaboration activities. However, it does apply to medical workers, teachers, and utility workers.
“The penitentiary system of Ukraine can only accept 115 thousand prisoners.
