“Mustafa Dzhemilev is a true hero of the Crimean Tatar and Ukrainian people. His contribution to the fight for the establishment of the values of democracy and freedom is invaluable,” Poroshenko said.
The wording states that the award is being presented to Dzhemilev “in recognition of his significant role in the return of Crimea and the release of Kremlin political prisoners.”
It is noteworthy that the news about Dzhemilev’s award is only on the Ukrainian version of the site; it is not in Russian or English.
