Context:
- Russian warship, go fuck yourself – originally spoken in russian, was the last communication made during the 24 February 2022 russian attack on Snake Island in Ukraine’s territorial waters, by Ukrainian border guard to the russian missile cruiser Moskva.
- On 1st of March 2022 Ukrposhta initiated contest for post stamp for above slogan:
“Ukrainian stamp, which is the same symbol of the state as the flag, coat of arms or anthem, today celebrates its 30th anniversary
But because of the war with Russia, we decided to replace the celebration of the All-Ukrainian People’s Contest with the best sketch of a postage stamp entitled: “Russian warship, go fuck yourself!”
The stamp must be international so that everyone can send it to any country. The deadlines are short, because it’s very hard to stick it on a postcard.”
