In Ankara Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman participated in the opening of the photo exhibition dedicated to the anniversary of the occupation of Crimea.

Over 1000 days Ukrainian Crimea has been in occupation of the Russian Federation, said the Head of Government.

During this period "a beautiful Ukrainian resort has been transformed by the Russian aggressors into a militarized territory where rights to religion, democracy, freedom are ignored", stressed Volodymyr Groysman.

As a result of invasion dozens thousands of Crimean Tatars were forced to flee their homes.

In this context, the Prime Minister of Ukraine stressed that Ukraine highly appreciates the continuing support of Turkey for the territorial integrity and independence.

"We know that Ukrainian Crimea will be returned to Ukraine. Justice, law will be restored. It is our responsibility and victory", emphasized Volodymyr Groysman.
