Republic Of Türkiye Ministry Of Foreign Affairs 16.03.2018

Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula was annexed by the Russian Federation following the illegitimate referendum held four years ago today.

We reiterate that we do not recognise the de-facto situation caused by this act which is a violation of international law and confirm our support to the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine.

We will continue to follow the developments in Crimea closely, particularly the situation of Crimean Tatar Turks, who are among principal constituents of the Peninsula.
