| Summary: | Modern Ukraine, together with the countries of the Balkan Peninsula, belongs to a group of European countries that have their own indigenous Muslim population. Islam in Ukraine has more than a thousand years of history. The first Muslims who systematically lived or roamed the lands of present-day Ukraine were the steppes (the burial of the Ossetian-Alan ancestors according to the Muslim rite archeologists date to the 7th-8th centuries). Its carriers are the Volga and Crimean Tatars (now 57% of the total number of Muslims in Ukraine), representatives of the Caucasian-Biberian language group, small diasporic associations of other Turkic-speaking peoples, and some ethnic Ukrainians, Belarussians and Russians. |
