russian military ship stamp, the queue stretched from khreshchatyk street along the entire independence squarele, and they have been waiting for hours since the very morning to buy this stamp literally a few minutes after its sale began this stamp is a kind of remake of the previous and famous stamp which was dedicated to the famous phrase when the ukrainian defender roman gribov on the island of the snake sent the cruiser moscow flagship of the russian fleet in the correct direction and the ship went in this direction. on april 12, the stamp was presented already on april 13. the ship was hit and sunk by a ukrainian missile, that is why this stamp became such a symbol of ukrainian struggle and indomitability. collections or send to friends abroad, not everyone had enough of the previous taras stamp, it was 1 million ago, ukrposhta decided to reissue this stamp, it has changed a bit and is already dedicated to the fact that this ship is moscow cruiser has already been flooded and the circulation of this stamp will be 5 million, so in ukrposhta i hope that there will be enough for everyone , sa
