Getting Stuck on a Ukrainian Battleship: Russian Roulette (Dispatch 3) (2x6)

Ausstrahlung: Mär 07, 2014

The blockade by Russia of Ukrainian military installations in Crimea continues. VICE News correspondent Simon Ostrovsky spoke with families of personnel barricaded inside, who complained about the difficulty of getting food past the pro-Russian protesters outside. Russia's supporters explained why they want Crimea to separate from Ukraine, and Simon negotiated his way through a Russian checkpoint to interview an officer on the Slavutych, a Ukrainian battleship stuck in the harbour of Sevastopol.
