After the victory, Crimea should become a national-territorial unit that will forever remain an integral part of Ukraine. This was stated by the chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people Refat Chubarov during a conference in the European Parliament. He stressed that Ukrainian politicians and society should be aware of the universality of the values and principles of democracy.
“We must develop an independent democratic Ukrainian state. In it, indigenous peoples, including Crimean Tatars, Karaites and Krymchaks, formed on the territory of Crimea. They must receive real political, legal and economic guarantees for their preservation and development,” Chubarov stated. He also called on the international community to approve a set of measures that would rule out the hypothetical possibility of Moscow's revenge after the end of the war.
