Poroshenko proposes constitutional declaration of Crimean Tatars' right to self-determination within Ukraine
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has proposed constitutional amendments to give Crimean Tatars the right to self-determination within Ukraine.
"We should start the process of modification and additions to Section 10 of the Ukrainian Constitution titled 'Autonomous Republic of Crimea' [...]. These adjustments fully derive from the inalienable right of the Crimean Tatar people to self-determination within the sovereign and independent Ukrainian state," the president said at a Verkhovna Rada meeting dedicated to the Ukrainian Constitution Day on Tuesday.
Rights and freedoms of ethnic Ukrainians, Russians and other ethnic groups should be fully guaranteed on the peninsula, Poroshenko said.
