Representatives of MNCs about this stated at a press conference at the Ukrainian Crisis Center, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“We call on the international community to boycott the World Festival of Youth and Students in Russia, which they will try to hold on October 14–22, 2017,” they said.
According to representatives of the MNC, “Putin recommends not to politicize the issue of holding the event, but allows the participation of delegations from the DPR or LPR.”
As young Ukrainian nationalists stated, “a visit by youth delegations to the occupied territories during the festival will become a large-scale campaign by the aggressor country to legitimize the annexation of Crimea.”
