According to the claimed official result, 96.77% voted \u2018for\u2019 integration and turnout was 83.1%. Tens of thousands celebrated in Simferopol, the capital of Crimea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On 17 March, the regional parliament declared the Republic of Crimea. President Putin and Crimea\u2019s leaders signed an agreement on 18 March formalising the region\u2019s absorption into Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Crimea\u2019s de facto leader, Sergei Aksyonov, stated that next week Crimea will officially introduce the ruble as a second official currency along with Ukrainian hryvna. The Crimean Parliament ruled that Ukrainian state property in the peninsula will be nationalised and Ukrainian military units on Crimean territory are to be \u201cdisbanded\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The referendum was denounced by western leaders as \u201cillegitimate and illegal\u201d and they condemned Putin for stirring up ethnic divisions. Largely toothless travel bans and asset freezes against officials from Russia and Crimea were imposed by the EU and US, with other sanctions threatened. But western powers are divided on how far to punish Russia. Many EU states fear that tit-for-tat sanctions with Russia could badly damage the weak EU economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Despite their outrage at Russia\u2019s intervention in Crimea, the US and European powers have a proven record of similar actions, only on a much larger and more bloody scale. Violating their own international laws, the western imperialist powers invaded and occupied Iraq and Afghanistan, overseeing \u2018elections\u2019 in both countries. Months of Nato bombings against the Serbian regime in 1999 were the prelude to a western-supported independence referendum for Kosovo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Certainly the Crimean referendum was not held under conditions that allowed for free democratic debate and choice. Following the western-backed ousting of Ukraine\u2019s prime mininister, Victor Yanukovich, \u2018self-defence\u2019 militias (both locally raised and those which are widely believed to be unidentified Russian troops), took control of military bases and other key strategic points in Crimea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The parliament of majority-Russian speaking Crimea voted to leave Ukraine and to join Russia. The referendum was only then put to voters to rubber stamp the decision and only gave two options \u2013 for integration with Russia or for enhanced autonomy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">All pro-Ukraine media was shut down and weeks of state-run media blasted out pro-Russian nationalist propaganda. Crimea\u2019s minority Tatar and Ukraine-speaking populations (40% of the population) complained of an intimidating atmosphere and most of them boycotted the referendum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Yet is also the case that the vote for union with Russia was hugely popular among the majority of Crimeans. This is in large part due to the reactionary character of the new Kiev regime and the manner in which it came to power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/media.chinaworker.info\/2014\/03\/crimea-feat.jpg\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/media.chinaworker.info\/2014\/03\/crimea-feat-600x375.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"375\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Months-long mass protests<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The months-long mass protests against Yanukovych were fuelled by years of economic stagnation and growing poverty, as well as deep anger at the corrupt, authoritarian regime and its oligarch backers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The revolt, which displayed elements of a revolution, quickly revealed the lack of support for the rotten Yanukovych regime. Riot police brutality of protesters in Maidan Square provoked widespread revulsion and the regime fell apart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However in the absence of mass workers\u2019 organisations that pursue an independent class line, reactionary opposition politicians, including Ukrainian ultra-nationalists and the far right, dominated the protest movement. Members of the anti-Semitic Svoboda party and fascistic Right Sector acted as shock troops on the ground in central Kiev and elsewhere. They physically attacked trade unionists and left activists who attempted to join the protests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The new Kiev regime\u2019s anti-Russian rhetoric and the involvement of the far right, which holds key ministerial positions, provoked fear among the ethnic Russian minority, who are mainly based in Ukraine\u2019s east and south. Among the Rada\u2019s (Ukrainian parliament) first decisions was to downgrade the use of the Russian language and to vote to outlaw the \u2018Communist\u2019 Party.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With Crimea already one of the poorest parts of Ukraine, many Crimeans also feared that the new Kiev regime would agree financial aid deals with the EU and IMF, linked to harsh austerity measures, resulting in their living standards falling even further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But the outcome of the referendum will not deliver peace, stability and prosperity for the people of Crimea. Living standards will not be transformed by Crimea\u2019s integration into a weakening Russian economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The authoritarian Putin regime and its oligarch-backers are only intervening in Crimea, whipping up Russian nationalism in the process, to defend their \u2018near abroad\u2019 geo-strategic interests. The peninsula is the focal point of growing tensions between Russia and Kiev and its western backers \u2013 who aim to extend imperialist power and influence right up to Russia\u2019s borders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This has led to a dangerous build-up of military forces. Last week, Washington ordered military exercises in Poland, Lithuania and in the Black Sea. After the Crimean referendum, Ukraine\u2019s parliament approved the partial mobilisation of 40,000 reservists. Both sides say they are not going to go to war over Ukraine but a deepening of tensions can lead to \u2018localised\u2019 conflict nevertheless.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5em; color: #000000;\">Demagogic politicians<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Working people across Ukraine will pay the price for an escalation of the crisis. Several people were killed last weekend when fighting broke out between pro-Ukrainian and pro-Russian protesters and militias in the eastern cities of Donetsk and Kharkiv. If such clashes develop momentum it could lead in majority Russian ethnic areas to calls for more referendums, attempts to break away and the horrific possibility of bloody break-up of the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Only the organised, united working class, with independent and internationalist policies, can decisively counter reactionary nationalism and end big capitalist powers\u2019 meddling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The demagogic nationalist politicians in Kiev, Simferopol and Moscow may be enjoying popular support at the moment by exploiting fears but their pro-market policies and nationalism will not improve living standards or end corruption and oppression. Already many of those who opposed Yanukovich complain bitterly about the new gang of crooks who seized power and handed out regional governorships to their oligarch friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As the recent revolt of workers and youth in Bosnia Herzegovina shows, new upsurges against dire economic and social conditions and corrupt politicians are inevitable but they require organised, political expression to provide a working class and socialist alternative.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tensions between powers worsen Niall Mulholland, CWI Crimea\u2019s 16 March referendum saw an overwhelming majority vote in favour of joining Russia.
