David M. Herszenhorn.„Dependence on Russia Is Likely to Leave Region’s Economy in a Precarious State“ (inglizcha). The New York Times (19-mart 2014-yil). — „The process is also fraught with risks, including the possibility that the Ukrainian government could move to further isolate the geographically remote peninsula by shutting vital transportation lines. There is no overland transportation link between Russia and Crimea, and building a bridge across the shortest waterway, near the Crimean city of Kerch, would take years and cost an estimated $3 billion to $5 billion“.

Andrew Roth.„Putin opens 12-mile bridge between Crimea and Russian mainland“ (inglizcha). The Guardian (15-may 2018-yil). — „The 12-mile (19km), $3.7bn (£2.7bn) bridge is Moscow’s only direct road link to Crimea. Russia expects it will carry millions of cars and rail travellers and millions of tons of cargo each year. Previously, all car traffic passed over the Kerch strait by ferry or by passing through Ukraine“. Qaraldi: 26-iyul 2018-yil.
