Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that compromises on the territorial status of Crimea are unacceptable. This comes after Radosław Sikorski, the Polish Foreign Minister, proposed holding a referendum there under certain conditions.

The statement by Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski suggesting that Crimea could be placed under a UN mandate is unacceptable, states Refat Chubarov, head of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people.

Crimea plays a crucial role in possible peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. Therefore, one of the options for resolving the issue of the peninsula may be to place it under a UN mandate, says Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski at the 20th annual YES meeting in Kyiv.
