CRIMEA IN THE FUTURE OF UKRAINE, EUROPE, AND THE WORLD

When we talk about Crimea, we are not speaking only—or even mainly—about a territory; we are speaking about the people for whom Crimea is home, a place that inspires and gives strength.
The Crimean Tatar people were deprived of their homeland for decades due to Soviet repression, and today they remain divided as a result of the temporary occupation. How do those currently in Crimea, and those living outside its borders, envision the future? And does Europe recognise the need for the cognitive de-occupation of Crimea?
