During a meeting of the Council of Ministers of Crimea, the official instructed the traffic police and local authorities to promptly deal with the installation of road signs. He emphasized that not only Ukrainian inscriptions but also English-language versions would disappear from them. "Foreigners have no place here, they don't deserve it. Remove the English text!", stated the Chairman of the State Council of Crimea.

Konstantinov insists that only signs in Russian should be present on the peninsula.
