A/HRC/44/21 conscription of Ukrainian nationals residing in Crimea into the armed forces of the Russian Federation and restoring the property rights of all former owners deprived of their title as a result of the “nationalization” and confiscations carried out in Crimea. It is also important to end the transfers of protected persons, including those who are detained, outside the occupied territory and to ensure that all protected persons previously transferred to the Russian Federation be allowed to return to Crimea. 56. The Government of Ukraine for its part is urged to respect its obligations under international human rights law in relation to Crimean residents. Specific recommendations include, but are not limited to, continuing to facilitate freedom of movement to and from Crimea through improvements of crossing conditions and taking down regulatory barriers. In addition, the Ukrainian authorities should consider simplifying access for current and former residents of Crimea to all public services offered to residents in other parts of Ukraine, including banking services, identification documents, social security, and civil registration procedures. They should also support dialogue with the Government of the Russian Federation and between the Ombudspersons of Ukraine and the Russian Federation to facilitate the voluntary transfer of Ukrainian detainees held in Crimea and the Russian Federation to detention facilities in the Ukrainian territory outside Crimea. 57. It remains essential for other Member States to encourage the Russian Federation, as well as Ukraine, to facilitate the granting of unimpeded access to Crimea for international and regional human rights monitoring mechanisms. I also urge Member States to support human rights defenders who work for the protection of human rights in Crimea and to continue to support the work of the United Nations to ensure respect for international human rights law and international humanitarian law in Crimea. 14
