Crimea-L, which remained inactive for a while, was activated on March 1, 2014, due to members' concern for the illegal invasion of the Crimea by pro-Russian forces. It is no longer active and the past files are not available.CRIMEA-L: A Discussion List on Crimea and Crimean Tatars INTRODUCTION CRIMEA-L is a moderated communications list dedicated to Crimea, Crimean Tatar people, and related topics, as outlined below. This introductory message provides general information on the purpose, scope and guidelines of the list, which we hope will be helpful to new subscribers and to those interested in subscribing. Please read it carefully and do not hesitate to contact the list administrator(s) if you have any further questions. CRIMEA-L list was created on 24 November 1998 by the International Committee for Crimea (ICC) to serve as a tool of communication and exchange of information on Crimea and Crimean Tatars. Originally, the official languages of CRIMEA-L were English, Crimean Tatar, and Turkish. For the next five years, as the membership gradually grew, CRIMEA-L became predominantly a group of Turkish and Crimean Tatar speaking individuals. On 24 November 2003, KIRIM Haber (Crimea News) was created for Turkish and Crimean Tatar speaking members, and CRIMEA-L now continues as a list in English only. Additional information about Crimean Tatars, their history and culture, and the current situation, is found at ICC's Web site and Crimean Tatar Internet Resources.
