Today, 23 August, the State Flag Day is celebrated in Ukraine.
It is worth noting that after the beginning of the occupation of Crimea, the last flag of Ukraine was lowered only after 8 months – from the administrative building of Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people, when the occupants seized the building of the representative body of the Crimean Tatars.
There were several attempts to tear the flag from the building by armed men in balaclavas, but the employees of the ‘Crimea Foundation’ and activists of the Crimean Tatar national movement defended the state symbol of Ukraine for 8 months.
Very soon the Ukrainian flag will reappear on all temporarily occupied territories, in particular, in our native, warm and sunny Crimea.
Two flags – one victory!
Happy State Flag Day of Ukraine!
