08.10.2022

Following the AFU, which first congratulated Putin on his 70th birthday by giving him a fire show on the Crimean bridge, Ukrposhta announced its gift to the president of the terrorist state.

The postal operator announced the issue of the postage stamp "Crimean Bridge An Encore Performance!"

Since millions of experts, diplomats, politicians and ordinary people from all over the world have their eyes glued to the theatre of military operations in Ukraine, and not all of them understand the sacred significance of the Crimean bridge for Russia and the importance of its damage for the course of the Ukrainian-Russian war, it was decided to use scenes from the famous movie for the stamp sketch. Just as the myth of the unsinkability of the ship was spread, so Russia constructed the myth that the Crimean bridge is a symbol of the eternal connection between Ukrainian Crimea and Russia.

The circulation of stamps is 7 million copies. The nominal value of the M stamp (because the bridge (mist – in Ukrainian)), equal to the value of 18 UAH per stamp or 126 UAH per sheet of 7 stamps. The stamp will include a "First Day of Issue" envelope, an unmarked art envelope and a card. In addition to the main plot, the stamp contains several interesting details and hints:

A cigarette butt in the hands of the heroine as evidence that the occupiers have recently suffered greatly from smoking in forbidden places, the occupiers' passenger car moving into the abyss, losing looted washing machines and other goodies, a military airplane Bayraktar "accidentally" flying over the bridge, a broken enemy tank which was being ferried to the front by the occupiers as part of a convoy.

Details regarding the date of issue and terms of sale will be published additionally.

The author of the issue Yuriy Shapoval is a Ukrainian painter, works in painting, drawing and installation techniques. He graduated from Poltava National Technical University named after Yuriy Kondratyuk. Participant of Ukrainian and international exhibitions and outdoor painting events.

The Crimean bridge, which connects the temporarily occupied Crimean peninsula with Russia, is an illegal construction, which as part of a full-scale war launched by Russia on February 24, 2022, was actively used by the occupiers to reinforce their army.
