Despite that from the moment of adoption the Law of Ukraine "On Ratification of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages" #802-IV of 05.15.2003 four years had passed, not a single legislation act directed to the Charter’s provisions implementation was adopted. Furthermore, in Ukrainian legislation there is no legislative act that would define the powers of local authorities regarding recognition of languages, which are commonly used on the territories of definite administrative areas, that makes impossible any further activity on the Charter implementation.
