Good News: Crimean Tartars’ rights restored

Following on from CAIR’s occasional “Good News” features in their mailings, I’ve decided to do one of my own whenever a good news feature (or apparent good news feature) appears in the media. Today it’s about the Tartars of Crimea (a peninsula in the Black Sea which belongs to Ukraine but where the main language is Russian), whose rights have been restored for the first time since their deportation to Central Asia by Stalin according to this BBC report. The new law, awaiting signature by President Leonid Kuchma, will have the same rights over land, housing and work as other Ukrainians, and bans discrimination.
