Boycotting Election, Crimean Tatars Make Pies Instead
As Crimea held local and regional elections on September 14, many Crimean Tatars boycotted the vote -- the first election since Russia annexed the peninsula. In the town of Bakhchysarai, some residents, like Gulzara, highlighted the boycott by making a traditional Crimean Tatar dish, chebureki, instead of going to the polls. (RFE/RL)
