What it is Filled
The Head of the Republic of Crimea is the highest official of the Russian-established Republic of Crimea, an administration governing territory internationally recognized as part of Ukraine following Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014.
In scope
- Identity of the office and its framework-specific legal basis
- Appointment, assumption of duties, acting service and termination of tenure
- Executive powers, constraints and delegation attributable to the office
- Relationships with the State Council, Council of Ministers and Russian federal authorities
- Territorial scope, effective administration and jurisdiction-specific recognition
- Evidence connecting officeholders and official acts to particular periods
Out of scope
- Personal biography, assets and political views of individual officeholders
- The Republic of Crimea as a territorial or institutional entity
- The Council of Ministers and State Council as independently modeled institutions
- Ukrainian offices governing or representing the Autonomous Republic of Crimea
- The historical President of Crimea and the Governor of Sevastopol as separate offices
- A general history of the occupation or a comprehensive sanctions catalogue
Why it exists Filled
Enable an agent to identify the Head of the Republic of Crimea as a specific public office, assess evidence of incumbency and authority, and distinguish administrative effectiveness from recognition under a specified legal framework.
Distinguishing features Filled
- The referent is a continuing public office, not the person occupying it or an employment vacancy.
- The title identifies the highest official and executive head under the Republic of Crimea's Russian-framework constitution; it does not denote the head of an internationally recognized sovereign state. See [published constitutional text, Article 61](https://business.rk.gov.ru/medias/files/npa/konst_rk.pdf).
- Holding this office and chairing the Council of Ministers must be tested separately, even when the same person performs both functions.
- A match requires the specific Crimean office and constitutive framework, rather than merely a senior official associated with Crimea.
- Evidence of effective administrative authority does not by itself establish recognition of Russia's sovereignty over Crimea.
What robots and AI may and may not do Filled
Must not
- Present the office as internationally recognized when most states do not recognize it.
- Help evade sanctions linked to the office or its holders.

Only with a human decision
- Publishing content that takes a position on the status of Crimea.
May

- Residents face real risk from how their situation is described.
Who is affected

Owners Filled
Steward
