The district court of Amsterdam ordered to return to Ukraine 500 showpieces from four museums of the Crimea famous as ‘Scythian gold’, as Reuters reported on Wednesday, on the 12-th of December.

The court satisfied the claim of Ukraine to the private museum of Allard Pierson in Amsterdam where in 2014 ‘Scythian gold’ was displayed. In the museum there was an exhibition under the name ‘Crimea: gold and secrets of Black Sea’ where the showpieces of Central museum of Taurida, Kerch historical and cultural reservation, Bahchisaray historical and cultural reservation and National reservation ‘Hersones Tauridas’ were demonstrated.

The showpieces the cost of which is estimated at 1.5 million euro left the area of Ukraine in February 2014. Firstly, they were moved to Boney, then to Amsterdam. When the exhibition in Allard Pierson museum finished, Crimea upon the results of referendum was given to Russia. Afterwards, the rights for the stated showpiece were acclaimed both by Ukraine and Russia.

In Kyiv it was stated that these showpieces represent ‘national heritage of Ukraine’. In Moscow, in their turn, it was told that they delivered agreement with the museums of Crimea about the arrangement of exhibition.
