A/HRC/28/64/Add.1 rise.26 The Government has no registration system for IDPs on national or ethnic lines that would allow for a full breakdown according to identity. Estimates suggest that many are Crimean Tatar (80 per cent in western Ukraine; 20 per cent in the Kyiv region); however there are reports of an increased registration of ethnic Ukrainians, ethnically mixed families, ethnic Russians, refugees, asylum seekers and foreigners married to Ukrainian citizens.27 The true number may exceed that provided, given that many people may have found accommodation with relatives and communities without registering with organizations that provide support. According to UNHCR, factors triggering movement include increased security concerns and personal threats. 53. Efforts to address the needs of IDPs and protect the rights of those who remain in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and prevent further displacement should conform with the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement. UNHCR reported the priority concerns of IDPs as: maintaining contacts in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea; freedom to move and communicate between the Republic and the mainland; assistance with shelter and employment; simplified procedures for obtaining identity and residence documents to enjoy social and economic rights on the mainland; continuity of social payments; and assistance with property sales, transfer of funds and personal belongings. The Special Rapporteur welcomed efforts to support IDPs and witnessed solidarity across various communities manifested in voluntary services and contributions. However, some reports suggested that IDPs had experienced difficulties gaining access to financial support from the State. 54. Some Crimean Tatar representatives indicated that, historically, their rights had not been fully recognized and protected by any authority in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. The Government mentioned that, following the events in the Republic resulting in the “referendum”, in March 2014 the Verkhovna Rada had passed a resolution guaranteeing the rights of the Crimean Tatar people as a part of the State of Ukraine (No. 1140–VII of 20 March). According to the resolution, Ukraine guarantees to preserve and develop “the ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious uniqueness of the Crimean Tatar people, as indigenous people and of all national minorities of Ukraine”. It acknowledges the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people as a competent authority and requires urgent submission of draft laws and regulatory legal acts confirming the status of the Crimean Tatar people as indigenous people. 55. According to General Assembly resolution 68/262 on the territorial integrity of Ukraine, the Russian Federation has no legal jurisdiction over the Autonomous Republic of Crimea or its populations. Nevertheless, it is to be noted that on 21 April 2014, following its occupation of the Republic, the Russian Federation published a decree on measures to rehabilitate Armenian, Bulgarian, Greek, Crimean Tatar and German populations and State support for their revival and development. The Special Rapporteur notes that the full spectrum of human rights of minorities must be respected, protected and promoted without discrimination by the de facto authorities even in situations of territorial dispute or occupation. 56. In view of recent political and social change and the activities of armed militias, the Special Rapporteur recommends that the United Nations human rights monitoring mission should be allowed unfettered access to the Autonomous Republic of Crimea at the earliest opportunity. It should engage with both the de facto authorities and diverse civil society and community actors to ensure that human rights standards, including minority rights, are upheld in practice. 26 27 See http://unhcr.org.ua/attachments/article/971/IDP.pdf and www.unhcr.org/537b24536.html. From mid-April 2014, UNHCR noticed movement of people away from eastern Ukraine as tensions increased in the regions. 15
