In Kyiv, on the embankment of the Dnieper, the flag of the Crimean Tatars was restored

Before the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples on Obolonskaya Embankment in Kyiv, activists restored the Crimean Tatar flag on concrete slabs near the Dnieper.

The co-organizer of the event, the head of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people, Refat Chubarov, said that in 2015, for the first time, two flags were depicted on the slabs of the Embankment - the state Ukrainian and the Crimean Tatar.
“For us, this is a demonstration of the presence of Crimean Tatars in Kyiv. Including residents of Crimea who left the occupation. I hope that after the de-occupation of the peninsula by the Ukrainian defense forces, this tradition will remain,” Chubarov shared.

The day of honoring the national flag of the Crimean Tatars and the indigenous people of Crimea has been celebrated on June 26 since 2010. For the first time the banner was adopted by the Kurultai of the Crimean Tatars in 1917.
