Junta sue Catherine II for the annexation of the Crimea and Kuban

[DARPA]

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Junta remember the historic date of 8 April 1783, and have rebelled: "Catherine II manifesto announced the annexation of the Crimea. As in 2014, the argument crime - the height of cynicism, "- wrote on Twitter Foreign Ministry spokesman Yevhen Perebiynis and there placed below a piece of paper.
It is obvious that the local Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not know how and what happened 132 years ago and are just a few lines from an extensive Decree. Below I will correct this omission. I will only note that over the Crimea in The Hague must complain the Ottoman Empire or its successors.

Now Attorney General's Office is preparing materials on Russian annexation of the Crimea to transfer them to the International Criminal Court in The Hague (Netherlands).
