- UNPO is an advocacy organisation for unrepresented peoples; its account is treated here as one perspective among sources, not a neutral academic one, though the factual dates it gives (the 1990 declaration, 1991 renaming) are corroborated by the pattern seen in other Russian republics of this period.

Editorial annotation
Gives the 1990 sovereignty declaration (by 8 October 1990) as the Buryat Soviet Socialist Republic, its stated aims (economic self-management, ecological protection, cultural development, and elevation to union-republic status), Gorbachev's refusal to recognise it, the 27 March 1991 renaming to the Buryat Republic, the 1994 constitution, and Buryatia's status as one of 89 equal federal subjects under the 1993 Russian Constitution.
