De Schatten van de Krim plot

For 6 years now, objects from the traveling exhibition 'De Krim - Gold and secrets of the black sea' have been lying without ownership in the cellars of the Allard Pierson museum in Amsterdam. Opened in March 2014, the exhibition was closed after a month due to Putin's annexation of Crimea. Since then, the objects have been stateless. The museum immediately received claims from both sides: both the Crimean Museum and Kiev claimed the treasures. For example, the archaeological finds from the Crimea became part of a political tug-of-war, in which the Netherlands was given the role of involuntary arbitrator, and where the emotional value of the treasures in this long-running conflict perhaps weighs the most.
