Italy is preparing an exhibition on the "restoration" of Mariupol under Russian occupation, Ukraine's Foreign Ministry reacted

An exhibition is to be held in Italy to show how Mariupol is experiencing "restoration" after the city was captured by Russians. Ukraine has reacted to the plans to hold a propaganda event. This was announced by the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Oleh Nikolenko.


The announcement of the event, which will take place in Modena on January 20, suggests that the exhibition will be filled with typical propaganda narratives, including the "rapid recovery process" after the occupation of Mariupol.


The event is being organized by the cultural association "Russia Emilia-Romagna," promising to show "the results of the work of the new city administration" after the intervention of Russian troops.


Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleh Nikolenko said that this is an attempted provocation, and the Foreign Ministry has already expressed its intention to contact the Ukrainian embassy in Rome to prepare an official appeal.


"At the official level, Italy strongly supports the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine. And we expect that there will be a corresponding reaction to this propaganda event," Nikolenko added.
