Shock of Crimea occupation helps Ukraine to rethink Crimean Tatars role in its history – Canada's ambassador
Canada's Ambassador to Ukraine Roman Waschuk has said the shock of the Russian occupation of Crimea has helped the Ukrainian society to recognize the historic contribution of the Crimean Tatars into the united Ukraine.
"The shock of the occupation has helped the Ukrainian society to reassess and appreciate the historic contribution of the Crimean Tatars in the common history of the country and look at the issue of the national and cultural component of the Crimean autonomy in Ukraine in a different light," he said during the International Forum "Crimea under Occupation: Implications for Ukraine and the World "in Kyiv on Saturday.
The ambassador noted that the Crimean Tatar diaspora in Canada actively cooperates with the Ukrainian and even Russian diaspora in the matter of the support for Ukraine.
