Repatriation of the Crimean Tatars should be stopped for a few years in Crimea, Ukrainian MP Inna Bohoslovska believes. She said about it at the press conference 11 July, in Simferopil.
'I am sure it is necessary to suspend the repatriation of the Crimean Tatars in Crimea, to hold total inventory of the real residence of the Crimean Tatar population in Ukraine because we do not know neither the area of residence nor the conditions of residence, on which they are living. The problem of the Crimean Tatar people has not been settled and if we at sometime would not stop and not put to rights then this problem will be accumulated and increased' - the people's deputy noted.
As QHA reports, I. Bohoslovska proposes to make honest decision and to suspend returning of the Crimean Tatars to their Homeland for 3 years. As for her point of view, setting to rights and settling all the issues concerning the Crimean Tatars might be legislatively at this period of time.
The legislation does not work in consequence of which self-acquisitions of lands happen, as deputy noticed.
'‘Toilets’ stand at the self-acquisitions of lands. This is not home, neither lands nor housing. This is bad for everybody: for Crimean Tatars because they have no housing and for people, who are not Crimean Tatar population because it is not architecture, and this is not Crimea now'- said Bohoslovska.
Also parliamentarian added that the state is making ‘hypocritical policy’ towards the Crimean Tatars, as strikes at the rights of the Russian population.
'The state must fulfil its responsibilities on the Crimean Tatar population returning because dispossession of the Crimean Tatars is as a sin but that how repatriation policy is executed, it is as a sin towards the Russian population in Crimea and as a sin against the country' - said Bohoslovska. The Russians in Crimea ‘are not recognized as people, likewise the Crimean Tatars, when they were evicted' - parliamentarian noted.
'History of fascist regimes'In his turn, the First Deputy Chairman of Milli Majlis Refat Chubar thinks that the suspension of the Crimean Tatars repatriation to their Homeland 'is the same thing to prohibit Inna Bogoslovska to breathe, talk to her children in their mother tongue and live in Ukraine'.
'If Mrs. Bohoslovska believes that this is possible then she has inhuman views' - R. Chubar said to QHA correspondent.
According to R. Chubar’s opinion, I. Bohoslovska entered the presidential campaign and thinks to please the population that confesses to xenophobic attitudes, would be able to gain votes.
'Using ethnic and religious issues during the election campaign is already being used for 15 years' - he noted.
Talking about I. Bohoslovska’s opinion, inventory of the Crimean Tatar people in Ukraine, R. Chubar said that the history of fascist regimes should be reminded to such politicians as I. Bohoslovska, which has always sought as much as possible to take a census of people, whose set face against given regimes.
Also R. Chubar added that the Crimean Tatars repatriation infringe the rights of the Russian population in no way.
'Almost all schools in Crimea are in Russian the language, the mass media is in Russian, we talk to each other in Russian, authority works in Russian and relations with Russia are as wide as possible. How Russians are not recognized as people?' – he questioned.
'If she does not like the fact that Crimean Tatars are able to build, she can always go to the other 'self-acquisition of lands'- where palaces with marble toilets have been built on dozens, hundreds of hectares - may be she would like it much. There are protests of the public prosecutor for those self-acquisition of lands but none of presidents does not reach it yet' - said R. Chubar.
