“Recently we have witnessed gross violations of the international law and the territorial integrity of a sovereign state in the neighborhood with my country... It has affected the situation with human rights of certain groups, such as Tatars in the illegally occupied by the Russian Federation Crimea,” Waszczykowski said.
