The stamps are dedicated to the well-known event, when a Russian military landing ship approached Zmeiny Island (Black Sea, Ukraine) and offered Ukrainian border guards to surrender.

   To this ultimatum, the Ukrainian soldiers (who were in the minority on the island and did not have the opportunity to escape or hide anywhere) suggested that the Russian warship go in a certain direction.

     In the future, the phrase became a symbol of the resistance of the Ukrainian people against the Russian.
