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

Maybe they understood English but didn't want to speak for fear of repercussions. They knew you were being watched
Maybe, and maybe you are too paranoid, I was conscious of the concern which is why I made the efforts on my own.

RU chief investigator said dismissing the referendum should be a criminal offense. Think of the climate that createshttp://www.newsweek.com/russias-chief-investigators-equates-crimea-denial-extremism-448915 …

I think it is a reaction to clearly anti Russian rhetoric, I found no Crimeans with concern about Referendum. If you run tomrw same result.

I'd arrive, question the referendum and get arrested under the extremism law. No thanks

random conversations. The "vox populi" approach is great. But bear in mind: you had eyes on you, so even those might have been questionable

in the end, how many of these random conversations did you have? Do you think they speak for Crimeans as a whole?
-
I spoke to about 20 as part of the tour and about 20 on my own. Time was limited it was no holiday, 20hrs sleep in 5 days.
-
Right. 20 people who were brave enough to tell you, obviously a foreigner, things that happened to be consistent with the state line
