The recognition of Kosovo independence set a precedent that gives
Crimeans, as well as Basques and Catalans, a right for
self-determination, German opposition leader said, lashing out against
Angela Merkel’s support of sanctions against Russia.
Gregor Gysi, a parliamentary head of the largest lower-house opposition party in Germany – the Left Party – has spoken out on Thursday against German Chancellor’s unquestioning support of the coup-appointed Ukrainian government.
“They formed a new government..... Immediately recognized by president Obama by the EU and German government as well. Miss Merkel! The vice- prime minister, the defense minister, minister of agriculture, environment minister, the attorney general.. They are fascists!” he stated.
Gysi was furious that Germany is doing nothing to address the extreme right threat in Ukraine.

Gysi was furious that Germany is doing nothing to address the extreme right threat in Ukraine.
- "With fascists in Ukraine we are doing nothing. Svoboda party has tight contacts with NPD and other Nazi parties in Europe.. The leader of this party, Oleg Tyagnibok, has recalled that literally.”
- “And with these Svoboda people we are still in conversation! I find it as a scandal!” Gysi told his fellow politicians.
- “With Kosovo, they opened Pandora's box. What's allowed for Kosovo, you should also allow for others. I told you this but you haven't listened to me. Winning the Cold War has eclipsed everything for you, you forgot about everything else,” Gysi said.
- “The Basques are asking why can't they make their choice, whether they want to stay within Spain or not? Catalonians are asking, why can't they decide whether they want to belong to Spain or not. Of course people living in Crimea are asking the same thing.”
