The activists are worried that the Ukrainian parliament has forgotten about their responsibilities toward Crimea and those who live there. The Ukrainian government failed to outline a strategy to return the region to the Ukrainian control, and they are disturbed that the preliminary text of the coalition power-sharing agreement in parliament does not contain a section on Crimea, stated former Euromaidan-Crimea coordinators Andriy Shchekun, Sergiy Kovalskyi, and Sergiy Mokrenyuk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The activists expressed their desire that Crimeans both on the peninsula and in mainland Ukraine are able to express their opinions through the Ukrainian political process. The three activists hailed the recent parliamentary elections on October 26 as a historic moment in the history of democratic Ukraine. \u201cWe welcome the free democratic elections and welcome those elected as MPs,\u201d stated Kovalskyi . \u201cHowever, we are concerned with the text of the coalition agreement that it doesn\u2019t address the temporarily occupied peninsula of Crimea.\u201d The activists think that a strategy for regaining the peninsula needs to be a galvanizing issue for any Ukrainian government. \u201cWe believe that the renewal of the territorial integrity of Ukraine should not only be the main task of the President but also the parliament of Ukraine,\u201d Kovalskyi continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to the speakers, Ukraine needs to ensure the rights of internally displaced people (IDPs) from Crimea, provide provisions for Ukraine\u2019s economic relationship with the region, and create a Ministry to handle Ukraine\u2019s strategy on the occupied region. Kovalskyi called for a government ministry that could specifically handle Crimean affairs. \u201cWe don\u2019t have a specific body that would work on systemic, economic, financial and banking issues in Crimea,\u201d he said. Some Ukrainian policies on the peninsula aid the Russian occupiers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mokrenyuk believes that the government\u2019s lack of action on the Crimean issue has been shameful. While Russia quickly integrated Crimea into Russia\u2019s economic and political mechanisms, Ukraine has not responded. \u201cFor nine months, the state has done nothing,\u201d Mokrenyuk. \u201cUkraine today is not undergoing comprehensive work on the return of Crimea,\u201d stated Shchekun. The activists believe that this situation needs to change and are appealing to parliament to include issues related to Crimea in the final coalition agreement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WATCH IN ENGLISH Kyiv, November 14, 2014.
