In the latest episode of Sanchez Effect, Rick travels through the beautiful and strategically important cities of Crimea, the pearl of the Black Sea.

Residents voted for the peninsula to join Russia over a decade ago. Since then, it has become a thorn in the side of the collective West. That’s despite the fact it previously united the Soviet Union and Western powers in planning a more prosperous future towards the end of World War Two, at the 1945 Yalta Conference.

Rick speaks with Crimea Governor Sergey Aksyonov and locals to hear their thoughts on the current conflict and their views on Russia and Ukraine. Don’t miss it – only on RT!
