The US has a lot of people whose history of statehood traces back to slavery. They still get a right to vote on their future.

Yes, they do. But the Crimean Tatars are what, 15% at most? Some people are acting like they should decide for everyone.

More than 15% of Ukrainians opposed Maidan (including Crimeans). Yet they were subjected to it.

No one from people not Ukrainians, not Tatars and not Russians had option to decide there future during the occupation process. There were just occupied by Russian military. It was military operation not decision of local population.

And also yes minority have there rights.
