A bill to invalidate the decision to transfer Crimea from the RSFSR to the Ukrainian SSR was submitted to the State Duma. The authors of the bill were State Duma deputy from United Russia Konstantin Zatulin and member of the Federation Council from Crimea Sergei Tsekov, it follows from the data in the electronic database State Duma.
In the explanatory note, the authors of the bill call the procedure for transferring Crimea to the Ukrainian SSR in 1954 political arbitrariness. The law itself, they remind, was adopted without discussion or secret ballot.
“Such a procedure for separating Crimea from the RSFSR, of course, violated the requirements of the Constitution of the USSR and the Constitution of the RSFSR concerning the powers of state authorities and the mechanism for making decisions by them,” the explanatory note says.
Messrs. Zatulin and Tsekov add that the Crimean region was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR for actual administration, which does not mean that it legally belongs to the Ukrainian Republic, according to international law.
In the summer of 2023 in Crimea, regional authorities decided achieve recognition of the transfer decision. The State Council of Crimea did not find any grounds for transferring the peninsula to the Ukrainian SSR. Then the working group of the State Council of the region refuted all the arguments of the Soviet authorities in favor of transferring the peninsula.
