On November 14, a web portal Georgia and the World (Geworld) published an article titled: “Americans Wanted to Place Nuclear Missiles, Targeted at Russia, in Crimea.” The article includes an interview of a Russian internet-TV ITON TV with Jacob Kedmi, the former Head of the Relations with the Soviet Union’s Jewish Diaspora – Натив, who states that the United States wanted to place a military base in Sevastopol, Crimea, from where it could shell the territory of Russia using the Tomahawk cruise missiles. As Jacob Kedmi claimed, Russia disrupted the United States’ plan on the placement of the military base by annexing Crimea. In the same interview, Kedmi labels the 2013-2014 Maidan events as a gamble by the United States and a coup d’etat, provoked by the latter.
