This was due in part to Stalin’s forcible deportation of the peninsula’s indigenous population, the Crimean Tatars, who were accused of wartime collaboration with the Germans.37. — 269 с. — ISBN 978-1-80206-179-6.

Serhii Plokhy.The Russo-Ukrainian War: The Return of History. — W. W. Norton & Company, 2023-05-09. — С. 35 - Under Khrushchev, the Ukrainian party elite emerged as the junior partner of its Russian counterparts in running the Soviet Union, which evolved into a Russo-Ukrainian condominium at the leadership level. A sign of the new prominence of Ukraine and its rise in the symbolic hierarchy of Soviet nations was the transfer of the Crimean Peninsula from Russia to Ukraine in 1954, orchestrated by Khrushchev. Officially, the “gift” marked the tercentenary of the Pereiaslav Agreement of 1654, which had brought Cossack Ukraine under Muscovite control, constituting the “reunification of Ukraine and Russia,” as it was hailed in Soviet propaganda. This was presented to the general public as proof of the trust that Russia now reposed in Ukraine.. — 298 с. — ISBN 978-1-324-05120-6. Архивировано 19 октября 2023 года.
