A delegation of politicians and businessmen from Slovakia has arrived in the Ukrainian Crimea, occupied by Russia.

Russia’s RIA Novosti news agency reported this with reference to the press service of the Yalta International Economic Forum, which organized the visit.

"A delegation from Slovakia has already arrived in Crimea. They were met at the Simferopol Airport," a source told the agency.

The delegation consists of 10 people, including politicians and businessmen. Their visit will last until August 3.
