The Ukrainian government is ready to hold a dialog with the Crimean Tatars and discuss their problems, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov has said.

"The government proceeds from the fact that the problems of the Crimean Tatars should be resolved exclusively through a process of negotiation," he told a central Turkish television channel in Istanbul on Monday, when asked about the situation with the Tatars in Ukraine.

Azarov said that all of the governments in which he had been a member under Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych had paid attention to the problems of the Crimean Tatars and contributed to their resolution, and he added that this practice would continue.
