Iryna Danylovych is known for reporting on social and human rights issues in occupied Crimea. Her persecution has become one of the emblematic cases of pressure against independent journalists in Crimea.

The case also concerns her subsequent criminal prosecution and sentencing by the occupation “court” in Crimea. Separately, the Court will review the Russian Ministry of Justice’s decision to label her a so-called “foreign agent.”

The idea for the Paris edition came from Spilka Paris after members of the team attended Saba Qavesi events in Kyiv.

On May 30–31, Paris will host Saba Qavesi: Un Weekend au Bakhchissaraï. It is the first international edition of the Kyiv-based cultural project dedicated to Crimean Tatar culture and contemporary Crimea.

Lavrentiy Beria was one of the key architects of Stalinist repression, including policies that paved the way for the deportation of the Crimean Tatars. Since 2014, Russian authorities have already recreated rooms associated with Joseph Stalin and Vyacheslav Molotov at the palace.

Russian authorities in occupied Crimea plan to restore the personal rooms of Soviet officials in the Yusupov Palace, including Lavrentiy Beria and Andrey Vyshinsky. Both were directly linked to Stalinist mass repressions.

For the Crimean Tatar people, this recognition carries special meaning. The story of Alim Abduramanov symbolizes courage, dignity, and the unwavering struggle of Crimean Tatars for Ukraine’s freedom and the future of Crimea.

The award recognizes his personal courage, heroism, and selfless service to the Ukrainian people.
