Krasnohvardiiske Raion (Russian: Красногвардейский район), known by Ukrainian authorities[nb 1] as Kurman Rayon (Ukrainian: Курманський район, Crimean Tatar: Къурман районы, romanized: Qurman rayonı) is one of the 25 regions of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, a territory recognised by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and annexed by Russia. The administrative centre of the raion is the urban-type settlement of Krasnohvardiiske. Krasnohvardiiske Raion is located in the central part of Crimea. Population: 83,135 (2014 Census).[1]
Notes
- ^ The renaming has been effected by Ukraine's decommunization laws, but as Crimea is outside of Ukrainian control, this decision has had little practical effect.
