Halya Coynash: OSCE bows to pressure, cancels Crimean occupation exhibition
A man looks through a window of a building with a banner depicting a Russian tank on it during celebrations in Sevastopol on March 18, 2015, to mark one year since Russia's President Vladimir Putin signed off on the annexation of Crimea.
Both Lithuania and Ukraine have reacted with outrage at the refusal by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to hold an exhibition on March 19, marking the first year of Russia's occupation of Crimea. This refusal comes some six months after a Russian propaganda exhibition was held throughout OSCE conferences in Warsaw.
