The management of the airport of Simferopol does not want to respond to "rename" the Verkhovna Rada, said the Director of the hub Yevgeny Plaksin.
"What's the point to react? We are in the territory of the Russian Federation and these matters are governed by regulations of our country, " he told the news Agency.



Plaksin noticed that airports are geographical objects, and there is a special procedure for changing the names of any geographic feature." We have name - joint-stock company " the international airport Simferopol ", it is listed in all relevant handbooks, assigned appropriate codes according to the classification of the airspace of the Russian Federation ", - said the Director of the airport. Plaksin reminded that the name of a Soviet pilot Amet - Khan Sultan is already an airport in Dagestan. According to his vision, assigning the same name may lead to negative consequences. People's deputies of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine decided to "assign" the international airport of Simferopol name twice Hero of the Soviet Union Amet-Khan Sultan. The proper resolution is supported 240 deputies.
