30. Corps or Ukrainian Marines

After the uprising of independent Ukraine, the Armed Forces of Ukraine were formed from military units stationed in its territory. The exception was the Black Sea Fleet, whose command rebelled and did not submit to the fresh authority. The future of the Black Sea Fleet has become the subject of respective years of Ukrainian-Russian negotiations. This resulted in the fact that the 810th Marine Infantry Brigade, which belonged to this fleet, did not form part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and after years it was assigned to the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. A akin destiny was initially met by black sea landing ships, with the exception of respective that fell under the Ukrainian flag.
