The broken door symbolizes the broken lives of Crimean Tatars, activists and journalists illegally detained and persecuted by Russia in the occupied Crimea.

"The special services do not knock on the door. For some reason, they always want to knock them out. At the same time, they do it at five in the morning when people are especially defenseless and can't count on the help of lawyers or publicity in the media," said Oksana Honchar, the author of the idea.

The same initiative in support of political prisoners was held not only in Kyiv but also in Berlin near the Brandenburg Gate and in Warsaw, near the Russian embassy. The installation should show: "Hundreds of Crimean Tatars are waiting every night for their doors, and their lives, to be broken."

The Russian Federation is persecuting 130 Ukrainian citizens in occupied Crimea, accusing them of "terrorist" or "sabotage" activities. Of these, 121 are under arrest, 76 have already been sentenced to long terms, and the remaining 45 are under trial and investigation. Most of the prisoners are Crimean Tatars.
