Abstract

The article analyzes the genesis, current state and problems of representation of the Crimean Tatar people in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. The paper examines the historical and legal foundations of representation of the Crimean Tatars as an indigenous people of Ukraine. Particular attention is paid to the impact of historical events, such as the deportation of 1944, which had long-lasting socio-economic consequences, and the Russification of Crimea, which limited the possibilities of active political participation of Crimean Tatars in the all-Ukrainian context. It is noted that for a long period after the return of the Crimean Tatars to Crimea, they remained outside the attention of the Ukrainian authorities due to the lack of state support and insufficient access to resources.
Emphasis is placed on the evolution of Crimean Tatars' representative participation in the Parliament, which began only with the III convocation of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. At this stage, the key role in shaping the legislative framework for the protection of the rights of the indigenous people was played by the leaders of the Crimean Tatar people, in particular Mustafa Dzhemilev and Refat Chubarov. The author analyzes the legislative initiatives of Crimean Tatar MPs covering a wide range of issues: from restoring the rights of deported persons, protecting social and cultural interests to countering Russian aggression. Particular emphasis is placed on the legislation adopted after the annexation of Crimea in 2014.
At the same time, the article notes the existence of significant problems that limit the effectiveness of representation of Crimean Tatars. In particular, the lack of special mechanisms to ensure their participation in the legislative process and the absence of a special status until 2021.
The author emphasizes that the development of representative participation of the Crimean Tatar people in the Verkhovna Rada is a key task to protect their interests. This will also help to strengthen their influence on the processes of de-occupation and reintegration of Crimea, which is important for the future of Ukraine as a democratic state that ensures the rights of indigenous peoples.
