The Act of Declaration of Independence of Ukraine[a] was adopted by the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR on 24 August 1991.[1]
The Act reestablished Ukraine's state independence from the Soviet Union.[2][1] The declaration was affirmed by a majority of Ukrainians in all regions of Ukraine by an independence referendum on 1 December, followed by international recognition starting on the following day. Ukrainian independence led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union by 26 December 1991.
