“Following a reaction of the Russian Federation to the results of the Blockade of Crimea protest event, we see a concentration of large amount of military equipment and human resources near checkpoints of Ukrainian servicemen and activists of the Crimean blockade. Under such circumstances, Right Sector ends its work on the blockade in the framework of the Crimean Maidan, but our military subdivisions will be sent to strengthen servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces defending the Ukrainian border along the demarcation line with occupied Crimea,” reads the statement.
