July 20, 2020

The US Embassy in Ukraine condemned the construction of Russian warships in the temporarily occupied Crimea, as the Russian Federation once again violates international norms. This is reported by the department via its Twitter page.

“The unauthorized construction of warships by Russia on the sovereign Ukrainian territory, which it has seized by force, once again violates international norms. The sanctions will remain in force until Russia returns to Ukraine control over Crimea and withdraws its forces from Donbass”,- the message says.

We remind on July 20, Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in the occupied Crimea, where he took part in the ceremony of laying down warships for the Navy. The event took place at the Zalyv shipyard in Kerch.
