Crimea: The Way Back Home - EN Subtitles -
VIDEO - Full Documentary
April 07, 2015 "ICH"
- This is Andrey Kondrashov's documentary on the return of Crimea to Russia,
aired in Russia on March 15, and now available with English subtitles. It has
been a year since Crimeans took to the polls to vote for returning to their
Motherland and leaving wretched Ukraine behind. The Western powers - led, as
ever, by the US and UK - are determined to portray this momentous historic event
as an imperial land-grab by Russia, and that it caused the subsequent civil war
between Kiev and the breakaway provinces in the country's East.
However, as this excellent documentary shows, the Russian government could see
that the violent manner in which the elected Ukrainian leader Yanukovich had
been ousted from power - with American fingerprints all over it - meant chaos
would soon spread throughout Ukraine, and that the majority ethnic Russian
population in Crimea would be among the worst hit by neo-Nazi militias
terrorizing anyone whom they considered 'insufficiently loyal' to the
US-selected regime. When President Yanukovich fled the capital on February 22nd
2014, President Putin set in motion a series of responses that would present the
first real (and successful) challenge to American imperial hegemony.

In this must-watch documentary, you'll learn:
- how Russia saved President Yanukovich of Ukraine
- how Crimeans returning from revolution in Kiev tasted the
the rage of the Right Sektor 'Maidan orcs'
- how members of the Berkut police force escaped to Crimea
and helped set up people's militias to defend the peninsula, not least by
preventing Kiev military jets from landing at Sevastopol's airport
- how these civilian militias defended against an organized
takeover of the Crimean Parliament in Sevastopol
- that most Crimean Tatars sided with the ethnic Russian
population, despite efforts by the coup organizers to generate an ethnic
split between them
- how the militias came together to blockade repeated
efforts by the 'Maidan orcs' (Right Sektor fascists) to enter the peninsula
- by road, train and air
- how the Crimean Referendum was enacted following near
unanimous support from the people's representatives in the Crimean
Parliament
- how Berkut forces were joined by Kuban Cossacks from
across the Black Sea region, including veterans of Russia's Afghan War, to
defend Crimea from efforts by the new regime to send in weapons and
explosives
- how, having prevented Kiev from deploying 'Maidan orcs'
via air, rail and road, Russia's Black Sea Fleet blockaded the Ukrainian
navy from leaving its home port
- how the Russian military placed the brand new Coastal
Defence System 'Bastion-P' at locations along Crimea's southern coast. Once
activated, the approaching USS Donald Cook Destroyer turned around
at full-speed before Russian military jets chased the American warship south
- how the 'Night Wolves' biker gang joined in the defence
of Crimea in Yalta by kidnapping Ukrainian General Mikhail Koval and
uncovering weapons caches left by the Ukies prior to the coup
- how the Crimean citizen militias and Russian soldiers
stationed in Sevastopol peacefully neutralized 20,000 Ukrainian forces
stationed on the peninsula, many of whom then defected to Russia
