Lie. Article says that 1992 Crimean constitution says Crimea is independent state. It doesn't. It says it is part of Ukraine.

Source (in Russian): http://www.qrim.ru/about/docs/Constitution_1992

Республика Крым входит в государство Украина и определяет с ней свои отношения на основе договора и соглашений.

Also in Wikipedia: The constitution establishes the republic's status and authority within Ukraine.

The article, however, still makes a valid - although overblown - point in that 1992 constitution was giving greater autonomy to Crimea than what it has now.
