So he basically said there are no civilians in Crimea? This should greatly increase support among the people there. Oh and tribunals, be it Russian, Ukrainian and international should save this tweet too.
- Civilians are a manufactured concept by the Russian deep state
If they don't like missile pieces raining on them they could move out of the stolen land they're living on
- What of the people who lived in Crimea prior to 2014? No peace for them? I thought these were supposed to be Ukrainians living under occupation, why is their own country threatening them?
  
  Completely reveals their plans for ethnic cleansing.
- sami occupier says what?
- How much internal migration between Crimea and other regions has there been? The population of Crima has hovered around 2 million for decades.
  
  Well, the true scale of the internal migration is hard to gauge because Russia is Russia, but in classic fashion there's likely been quite a bit of forced migration but could be as many as 800,000 to 1,000,000 people who have been "brought" into Crimea one way or another and a number of native Ukrainians and Tatars have been forcibly relocated.
  
  Edit: and I found one estimate putting the number of internally displaced Crimeans in Ukraine at 20,000 – 100,000 (pg. 2), but another estimate had an upper limit of 200,000
