The photo exhibition was opened on 17 March 2015, by the Mission of Ukraine to NATO with the assistance of the Permanent Delegation of Turkey to NATO to commemorate the first anniversary of the occupation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the beginning of Russian aggression against our country.
Representatives of partner missions, permanent delegations and the NATO International Staff had the opportunity to become acquainted with a selection of photos of news agency UKRINFORM which show the infiltration into the territory of Crimea of Russian special forces or the infamous "polite green men" and mass demonstrations held by the local people, including the Crimean Tatars to protect the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
