Journalist Carlson: Crimea became Russian as a result of a democratic referendum

American journalist Tucker Carlson, in an interview with TV presenter Chris Cuomo, said that Crimea became Russian due to a democratic referendum.

According to him, in a referendum that was previously held in Crimea, the vast majority of the Russian-speaking population was asked whether they wanted to be part of Ukraine or part of Russia.

“People responded that they wanted to be part of Russia. I would say that this is a democratic process,” Carlson said.

Let us recall that Crimea became a Russian region in March 2014 based on the results of a referendum after a coup d’etat in Ukraine.
