Crimea became a Russian region by referendum in March 2014, which was held after a coup in Ukraine. More than 96% of the inhabitants of the Republic and 95% of residents of Sevastopol supported the idea of returning the Peninsula to Russia.
Crimean bridge — the longest in Russia, its length is 19 kilometers. Traffic on the bridge was able to start earlier than planned. The President of Russia Vladimir Putin has opened a car 15 may bridge, and the next day it began the movement of buses and cars. The train part is planned to start in December 2019.
