After the explosion on the Crimean bridge, the secretary of the Ukrainian Security Council, among others, reacted mockingly. He sends birthday greetings to Vladimir Putin.
After the heavy explosion on Russia’s Crimean Bridge just one day after Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin’s 70th birthday, ridicule is high in Ukraine. Ukraine’s Security Council Secretary Oleksiy Danilov posted footage of the partially destroyed structure linking Russia and the Black Sea peninsula of Crimea, annexed by Moscow in 2014, on Facebook on Saturday. He also posted a video showing Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe singing the birthday song “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to then-US President John F. Kennedy in 1962.
Ridicule in Ukraine after Crimean bridge explosion
The video compilation was widely shared on social networks. Many commented that someone like Putin needs something special as a gift for the anniversary. The bridge has always been a project close to the heart of the Kremlin boss.
Danilov has previously taken issue with Russia’s ex-president Dmitry Medvedev after he threatened in July that Ukraine would face “doomsday” if it tried to retake Crimea. Danilov then reiterated that his country would definitely take back the peninsula.
The Crimean bridge, which is strategically and symbolically important for Russia and which Putin personally inaugurated in 2018, was shaken by a heavy explosion early on Saturday morning. Videos show major destruction. The exact background is still unclear. According to Russian sources, a truck exploded. However, Ukrainian media, citing security circles in Kyiv, reported that the SBU secret service was behind the special operation.
