The exhibition “Treasures of Crimea. Return”, whose exhibits were on display in the Netherlands at the time of the occupation of Crimea in 2014 and for the return of which Ukraine has been fighting for 10 years. According to the official website of the President of Ukraine on Thursday, the exhibition was opened by First Lady Olena Zelenska. “Our struggle for the return of Crimea and the return of its scrubs began simultaneously – 10 years ago. It took 10 long years of courts and brilliant work of Ukrainian and foreign lawyers, museum workers and diplomats for culture, historical justice and cooperation of free people to win,” Zelenskaya’s press service quoted the president as saying. The exhibition “Treasures of Crimea. Return” will be presented at the National Museum of History of Ukraine until the final de-occupation of Crimea. Then the collection is planned to be moved to the peninsula. It is noted that the unique exhibits of this exhibition belong to the cultures of different peoples who lived on the peninsula, including Greeks, Scythians, Sarmatians, Goths, and Huns. They were created in the period from the fifth century BC to the fifth century AD. More than 550 exhibits from four Crimean museums were on display in Amsterdam in 2014, when Russia occupied Crimea. For almost 10 years, our country has been trying to return them. Finally, a year ago, the Supreme Court of the Netherlands decided to transfer the collection to Ukraine. The return of the exhibits took place thanks to the joint work of representatives of a foreign law firm who cooperated with the Ministry of Justice and Ukrainian lawyers, as well as teams from the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy, the National Museum of History of Ukraine, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, and the Embassy of the Netherlands in Ukraine.
