[edit]The Supreme Council of the Tatar Soviet Socialist Republic adopted the flag on 29 November 1991 in its present form.[4] It was designed by T.G. Khaziakhmetov (Tawil Xaciəxmətov).[5]
The Tatar Encyclopedia states: "The flag is a state symbol that expresses the sovereignty of the Republic of Tatarstan, the identity and traditions of the people of Tatarstan.
Tatar nationalists such as the All-Tatar Public Center use a different flag, divided diagonally by red and green and containing a white star and crescent in the center.
