This redirect is about the sovereign state declared in 2014. For the autonomous republic claimed by the Ukraine, see Crimea. For the peninsula, see Crimean Peninsula. For Crimea, see Crimea (disambiguation). | It has been suggested that this article be merged into Republic of Crimea. (Discuss) Proposed since March 2014. |
The Republic of Crimea (Template:Lang-ru; Crimean Tatar: Къырым Джумхуриети, Qırım Cumhuriyeti; Template:Lang-ua) was a short-lived, partially recognized sovereign state that claimed the entirety of the Crimean Peninsula in the Black Sea, south of Ukraine and west of southern Russia.
The country was established in the Declaration of Independence of the Republic of Crimea of 11 March. Following the referendum of 16 March, the parliament of Crimea on 17 March asked the Russian Federation "to admit the Republic of Crimea as a new subject with the status of a republic" and later on the same day, Putin issued a decree formally recognizing Crimea as an independent state. before it was joined to Russia as one of its republics. The incorporation of Crimea into Russia was not generally recognized internationally.
The country was formed as the unification of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol—recognized internationally as administrative divisions of Ukraine—into a single united nation. Both regions had previously adopted a joint resolution expressing their intention to declare independence, as well as a resolution expressing their intention to unite with Russia. For this purpose, both governments had called for a referendum. While the majority of those voting in the controversial referendum voted for independence from Ukraine, internationally the legitimacy and impartiality of the vote was not recognized, particularly since it took place in a situation of a purported Russian occupation of the peninsula. One day after the referendum, both regions united and declared their independence as a single nation. Russia recognized the sovereignty of the newly formed nation the same day. The republic applied to join the Russian Federation as a federal subject at the same time its leaders declared independence, and Russian authorities quickly started the process of admitting Crimea and Sevastopol.
On March 21, 2014 the Russian Federation Council ratified the accession treaty, and President Vladimir Putin signed the treaty into effect that same day, with the accession backdated to March 18.
The recently installed government of Ukraine, along with all sovereign states except Russia, did not recognize the Republic of Crimea's claim to sovereignty, nor the unification of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea with Sevastopol, nor the referendum that paved the way for Crimean secession.
