“Lenur islyamov — Russian businessman and the citizen of the Russian Federation. He recently received a second nationality — Ukrainian. In the Crimea he had a thriving business.

We just wanted to indicate the opinion of the Crimean community: the Ukrainian people are not our enemy, enemies, those, who organized the Nativity scene in the Ukrainian government. They put pressure on recurrent themes, as the theme of the Crimean Tatar community. 23 people were kept in check. The trio are no longer leaders and no one else needs it,” said Aivaz Umerov.
