In Bukovina in the regional center Storozhinets hung a map of Ukraine without a "occupied" Crimea during the festive event. Representatives of local authorities from the stage said welcome speeches about the independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and no one paid attention to the map, TSN reports..
This is not the first time that practical Ukrainians do without the Crimea on their country's maps. In the past, this happened at an event in the city of Brovary, Kiev region. The prosecutor's office saw in the incident a manifestation of separatism and instituted criminal proceedings. The state holiday is celebrated in Ukraine on January 22 on the occasion of the proclamation in 1919 of the Act of the reunification of the Ukrainian People's Republic and the Western Ukrainian People's Republic into a single state.
