During this meeting, the international body ruled that it would refuse to recognize the Russian annexation of the peninsula.
Russia’s actions violated Ukraine’s national sovereignty, and a snap session was called at the United Nations (UN). During the military incursion, Russia claimed that it was protecting the rights of the Russian speakers and ethnic Russians in Crimea.
Following Ukraine’s Revolution of Dignity in 2013, Russia illegally annexed the Crimean peninsula in the spring of 2014. The facts, however, tell a different story. In Russia’s first complaint, Russian Foreign Affairs Department Press Director Maria Zakharova stated that Ukraine’s football kit incorporated the “Russian Crimea.” She then noted that the slogans used were an act of “political provocation.” Ukraine’s new kit also includes the Russian-occupied regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. Russia’s protests are nothing more than an attempt to spread disinformation. As UEFA and Ukraine undergo these deliberations, why has this kit become so controversial? Why is Russia outraged, and what is the history and symbolism behind the map and phrases used on this football shirt?
