According to him, Ukraine expects participation of the key international partners in the summit.
“In addition, 28 states have confirmed their participation in the Crimean Platforms. This will be an unprecedented international turn in the history of Ukraine.
The Minister specified that at present the Crimean Declaration, the final document of the summit, which will fix the fundamentally important provisions for Ukraine, has been almost agreed upon.
“This result confirms that we have managed to form the core of the international coalition for the liberation of Crimea” – the minister said.

- non-recognition policy;
- sanctions;
- security in the Azov-Black Sea region;
- protection of human rights and international humanitarian law;
