It’s no secret that after the occupation of Crimea by the russian federation in 2014, the peninsula turned into a lawless territory with a complete lack of freedom of speech. Unfortunately, this reaches the point of absolute absurdity…
We began to massively record cases where Crimeans were detained and forced to apologize on camera for photos with blue and yellow objects, Ukrainian songs or Trident tattoos!
Here we want to tell you about 10 such cases, although in fact there are hundreds of them:
On November 12, 2023, Kateryna Osypova was forced to apologize for a photo with blue and yellow objects (coffee straws);
On November 8, 2023, Maksym Hlibov was forced to apologize for his letter to Iryna Farion;
On October 26, 2023, Natalia Holokolosova was forced to apologize for insulting Putin on social networks;
On August 8, 2023, animators from Alushta (Anna Pidlisna, Vilena Borysenko, Mariia Kurochkyna) were forced to apologize for dancing to the song Hulianochka by Vierka Serdiuchka;
On August 8, 2023, Andrii Konriukov was forced to apologize for a tattoo with Crimea and the coat of arms of Ukraine;
On July 20, 2023, Yurii Voloshin was forced to apologize for discrediting the Russian Armed Forces, law enforcement agencies and putin;

All these people were caught by local informers, after which they have numerous troubles and problems.
No matter how the russian federation tries to prohibit the residents of Crimea from showing their respect and love for Ukraine, they will not succeed. After all, all Crimeans clearly know which country they are citizens of.
