No, an independent witness who has published his honest report of his visit. If it doesn't fit your fantasy world, then try and ignore it.

An "independent witness" - tell me: How did you come to speak with people in Crimea? You don't speak any of the local languages, do you?

No, I had an interpreter, it was filmed live so you should be able to check the footage, plus some spoke English as I said in my report.

Tell me about your interpreter. Someone you know and trust, and brought with you?

No, there were several, one from Just Russia, two contractors, but also the other witness mostly spoke English and so would have told me.

What do you mean? It's a serious question: How much control did you have over the situation, vs how much was in the hands of others?

There was the official tour, but we were free to do our own thing, I spoke to cleaners, hotel staff, shop keepers who spoke English.

Right. Who arranged your accommodations?
