12.11.2009. Letter of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia P.Gecko.
Dear Sir,
Ruthenian political nation in difficult conditions was always mindful of their inalienable right to self-determination.
They made use of this right in December 21, 1918, and in later times. International law has always recognized the existence of the State Subcarpathian Ruthenia and Ruthenian political nation.
A year before the Soviet collapse and the declaration by the Supreme Soviet of Ukrainian SSR of the independence of Ukraine, in September 29, 1990, the Society of Carpathian Ruthenians adopted a Declaration, which asked the Supreme Soviet of the USSR "... To repeal of the decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of 22 January 1946 for reformation of the Transcarpathian Ukraine in the Carpathian region as contrary to international law and the Constitution of the USSR, and to issue a new decree on the reformation of the former Transcarpathian Ukraine to the Autonomous Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia, i.e. recreate the pre-Soviet status of the Subcarpathian Ruthenia.
After the collapse of the USSR, the pre-Soviet status of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia was to be automatically renewed. The results of the referendum on Dec. 1, 1991, as an expression of political will of our people, convincingly confirmed that the Ruthenian nation is alive and capable.
Considering the aforementioned, and the real threat from the Ukraine of destruction of an entire people in Europe, the Second European National Congress of the Subcarpathian Ruthenians in October 25, 2008 made decisions to adopt the Act of Independence of the Republic Subcarpathian Ruthenia and to elect the Ruthenian Government. These decisions were also taken with regard to the following:
- International principles of non-use of force,
- The principle of non-violation of territorial integrity

In 1996, Ukrainian government adopted a criminal "action plan" to eliminate an ethnic Ruthenian nationality, went down to repressive measures against the leaders of the Ruthenian organizations and prosecution of the supporters of the Ruthenian national revival, thus hindering the implementation of free will of the people. Ukrainian authorities have ignored the recommendations of the UN and other international legal organizations with regard to violation by Ukraine of the rights and freedoms of the Ruthenian minority.
European and World Congresses of the Subcarpathian Ruthenians confirmed the legal justification for the Ruthenian nation to determine their future.

Based on the outcome of the European and World Congresses of the Subcarpathian Ruthenians, the Government of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia prepared and adopted paperwork for the official commencement of the international recognition of the restored state, the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia.
Adopted documents include

1. The legal justification for the formal commencement of the international recognition of the restoration of the statehood of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia, in accordance with international laws.

2. Agreement between the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia and Ukraine on the common territorial border.

3. Agreement on Subcarpathian Ruthenian-Ukrainian legal, cultural, socio-political and economic cooperation.

4. The Declaration of Independence of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia.

Sincerely, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Subcarpathian Ruthenia,

P. Gecko
