The illegal construction of the Kerch Bridge by the Russian Federation is another violation of Ukraine’s sovereignty.
This is stated by the Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs of the EU Maja Kocijancic, about partial opening of the Kerch Bridge.
«The Russian Federation has constructed the Kerch Bridge to the Crimean Peninsula without Ukraine’s consent. This constitutes another violation of Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity by Russia», – the statement said.
EU also declare, that construction of the bridge aims at the further forced integration of the illegally-annexed peninsula with Russia and its isolation from Ukraine of which it remains a part.
Besides, the bridge limits the passage of vessels via the Kerch Strait to Ukrainian ports in the Azov Sea.
«The European Union continues to condemn the illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol by Russia and will not recognize this violation of international law», – the message summed.
As «The Journalist» reported, France condemns the construction of the Kerch bridge, but at its opening were French deputies.
