He said this on Espreso TV. 

"Russia-occupied Crimea has no prospects, because it has no investment, no communication with the world, and is a dead end in terms of economy. Crimea has no prospects as a militarized zone. It is a zone used by Russia for aggression in the Azov-Black Sea and Mediterranean basins," emphasized Ivanets.

According to him, Crimea's budget is based on subsidies and this situation will remain until Crimea is liberated from the occupying Russian forces. 

"Crimea has no economic prospects as part of the Russian Federation," emphasized Ivanets.

  • The Russian Defense Ministry accuses Ukraine of attacking the temporarily occupied Crimea with drones on the night of July 18: the invaders claim to have allegedly destroyed 28 drones.

  • Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said that Russia is using the Crimean bridge to continue the war in Ukraine, and that it was built illegally.

  • Ukraine's Security Service says all details of the explosion on the Crimean bridge will be disclosed after Ukraine wins the war against Russia.
