“We need international solidarity that goes beyond expressions of sympathy and statements of support, and translates into concrete political decisions, practical cooperation and shared responsibility,” said @dogrujol
during Crimea Global: Understanding Ukraine through the South.
The de-occupation of Crimea is inseparable from the rights of Indigenous Peoples stressed the Head of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar People at the 4th international conference.
Crimea is the homeland of three Indigenous Peoples of Ukraine: the Crimean Tatars, Karaites and Krymchaks. After 12 years of Russian occupation, their rights to security, cultural heritage, identity and free development in their historic homeland remain at stake.

Kırım Tatarı savaş pilotu Marat Mambetov’a, Ukrayna’yı savunurken gösterdiği cesaret ve kahramanlık nedeniyle ölümünden sonra “Ukrayna Kahramanı” unvanı verildi.
Kırım onun vatanıydı, Ukrayna onun devletiydi.
İkisini de savunmak için mücadele etti ve hayatını feda etti.
Marat’ın kahramanlığı unutulmayacak.
Ruhu şad olsun. 🇺🇦

The museum brings together extensive documentation on Kremlin-held Crimean political prisoners, testimonies, personal stories and digital exhibits.
Materials were contributed by human rights and civil society organisations documenting Russia’s crimes since the beginning of the occupation.
The Museum of Crimean Resistance has opened online.
It preserves the stories of people who have resisted Russia’s occupation of Crimea since 2014 and faced political persecution and systematic repression.
Russian occupation authorities are putting Crimea’s cultural heritage sites up for “lease” and commercial use.
The sites are being offered for rent, use, “restoration” and subsequent commercial exploitation.

Most of these “investors” are from Russia, rather than Crimea.
Among them is St Petersburg-based Helikon LLC, which has obtained the right to carry out work at the Vorontsov Palace.
