The Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Dec. 6 is a double holiday, which is marked in Ukraine both on the anniversary of the adoption of the law on the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and in honor of the events of 1919, when the first independent Ukrainian state led an ultimately unsuccessful struggle against Bolshevik Russia.
Ukraine will change the names of the geographic sites in temporarily occupied Crimea to their historical names in the Crimean Tatar language.
