On June
11, Central Mejilis held a sitting, devoted to discussing the project of the
Crimean Ministry Council's resolution. This document is being prepared by a
joined working group, consisting of Mejilis and government representatives. In
particular, it foresees creating the councils of the Crimean Tatar
representatives at the Ministry council and local authorities. These structures
are supposed to be similar to the one, existing with the President. These
councils will consist of Mejilis representatives, like the Presidential one.
Apart
from that, the project mentions giving a building, located at the city center
to the Presidential Council representatives until July 15. It also mentions
nominating the Crimean Tatars to the administrative positions and land division
among the Crimean Tatars.
They
also spoke about the "tent town", initiated near the Autonomy
Parliament at the sitting. And the increase in number of these tents is
expected soon.
