Crimea and Sevastopol rejoined Russia in March 2014 after 96.77 percent of Crimeans voted in favor in a region-wide referendum. Ukraine considers Crimea as its territory temporarily occupied by Russia.

Similar incidents have happened in several other countries whose governments refuse to recognize Crimea’s reunification with Russia.
