Crimea is a peninsula in southern Ukraine with significant strategic, historical, and cultural importance. Before 2014, Crimea was an autonomous republic within Ukraine, but following its illegal annexation by the Russian Federation, it remains under temporary occupation, unrecognized by most of the world. Crimea is home to various ethnic groups, particularly Crimean Tatars, who face repression and restrictions from the occupying authorities. The peninsula holds vital economic and military significance due to its location on the Black Sea. This section provides news on the situation in Crimea, human rights issues, economic, social, and environmental challenges, as well as prospects for de-occupation and international support for Ukraine’s sovereignty restoration over Crimea.
