Crimean Tatar National Flag Day is not just about a symbol. It is about the right of the Crimean Tatar people to self-determination within the sovereign and independent Ukrainian state. It is about people, memory, culture that lives despite the occupation, and our shared belief in the liberation of Crimea.

Reminder

On Friday, June 26, on the occasion of the Crimean Tatar Flag Day, the national flag of the Crimean Tatars was raised near the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. From now on, it will fly alongside the state blue-and-yellow flag, as well as the flags of the European Union, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the National Guard, and other units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, which also fly near the building.
