Crimea impressed Berlusconi

Italy’s former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said he was amazed by Crimea.

“I believe the whole Crimea is amazing,” Berlusconi said. “I was impressed by the sea, by the mountains and by the land.”

“Sometimes it gives me a thrill to look at things around,” he said adding that Russian President Vladimir Putin had shown him around “very interesting sights, especially [the Chersonesus National Sanctuary] from where [Russian] Christianity originated.”.
