Crimean Tatars will be included in the party lists of four or five parties that will take part in early parliamentary elections in Ukraine.
"Let's wait until the lists are named," Chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar People, Member of Parliament Refat Chubarov told the news outlet Hromadske. "The only thing I'll tell you that our representatives are not on the list of the Opposition Platform, while Batkivshchyna has no Crimean Tatars, but representatives of Crimea — that suits us."
