INTRODUCTION Although it is not as well-known as the ethnic conflicts in Bosnia, Kosova, and Chechnya currently there is an escalating conflict with a non-violence aspect on the Crimean peninsula between Russians, Ukrainians, and the repatriating Crimean Tatars. The Crimean Tatars, a “deported people” forced en masse to relocate from Crimea to remote parts of Central Asia in 1944, began to return their homeland in 1988.1 In 1988, after more than thirty years of pressure, the Soviet Union gave the Crimean Tatars permission to return to Crimea. It is estimated that at least 250,000 Crimean Tatars have already returned, and it is expected that tens of thousand more have returned in the 21st century. Together with the dispute between Russia and Ukraine about the political status of Crimea, the Crimean Tatars’ presence could spark a more fundamental political crisis. Thus, the multi-national peninsula with very sharp ethnic, cultural and religious cleavages is slowly turning into an area of conflict that might turn into violence any minute, if the international community does not pay enough attention to prevent it.2 The Crimean Tatars case provides a clear example of the conflictual relationship between the interest in nation-state

It should be noted that Turkey will sustain its full cooperation with CERD and take the latter’s comments and recommendations into consideration with its longstanding commitment to combating racial discrimination. 1. In that regard, Turkey will continue to duly prepare its periodic reports, taking into account the points raised in the concluding observations (CERD/C/TUR/CO/4-6) and respond in more detail to the concerns and recommendations, as appropriate. 2. On the other hand, notwithstanding detailed information provided by the national delegation during the interactive dialogue with the Committee, which has also been shared in written with the Secretariat, the State party regrets that some of the comments and recommendations draw from unfounded allegations, without due reference to the views provided by Turkey in detail in the process. 3. On another account, as a result of the ongoing comprehensive reform process in the field of human rights, democracy and the rule of law, a number of key legislation that were raised by the Committee have been recently enacted.
