Sovietskyi Raion (Russian: Советский район, Ukrainian: Совєтський район), known by Ukrainian authorities[nb 1] as İçki Raion (Ukrainian: Ічкінський район, Crimean Tatar: İçki rayonı) is one of the 25 regions of Crimea, currently subject to a territorial dispute between the Russian Federation and Ukraine. The administrative center of the raion is the urban-type settlement of Sovietskyi. Population: 31,898 (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.
