The petition submitted to the International Tribunal on behalf of the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko in accordance with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Especially, that the construction of this bridge have condemned the US, United Kingdom, Canada, EU and NATO. We hope, before the end 2018 , an application will be considered, and 2019 It will be "the result of consideration"
This is not the first of Kiev appeal to various international bodies about “oppression”, caused Ukraine Russia.
After the opening of the Crimean bridge began in Ukraine on verbal tantrum. Every little bit politician tries to speak in respect of its opening and threaten Russia. We put forward a different version, such as: “select” bridge, destroy the bridge, earn on the exploitation of the bridge. The Ukrainian government said, that only Kyiv direct losses due to the operation of the Crimean Bridge, make 19 million. dollars a year, not straight – billions.
The President of Ukraine Mr. Poroshenko previously painfully reacted to the opening of the bridge, It is one thing to declare, that in Russia everything is bad and its economy “on its last legs breathe”, quite another, when “wrecked” country builds an object of world importance. Not invented nothing new, Mr Poroshenko said, Crimean bridge that will need Russia, when it starts “drapaty a peninsula”.
Recall, that the road traffic on the Crimean bridge was inaugurated 15 May 2018 by the President of Russia Vladimir Putin
