The first thing #russians always did after the #occupation of a certain territory was to destroy the culture and language of the local indigenous population.

After the deportation of #Crimean #Tatars in 1944, russia tried to erase any mention of them in #Crimea. 560 rural libraries and 861 school libraries were destroyed and burned.

860 Crimean #Tatar schools were closed.

Many different manuscripts have also disappeared. Their fate is unknown.

C'est ce qu'on appelle parler d'or.
Dostoïevski, citation :
« Le monde futur sera un monde où les gens un peu intelligents seront tenus de se taire pour ne pas embarrasser les crétins. »

On July 27, police detained Lutfiye Zudiyeva, a journalist of the Graty media outlet, in #Crimea.

According to the editorial assignment, she was to cover the court hearing in the Supreme Court of Crimea on the case of Deputy Chairman of the #Mejlis of the Crimean #Tatar people Nariman Dzhelal and the Akhtemov brothers, whom the #Russian authorities accuse of #sabotage.

Along with #Zudiyeva, 12 other #Crimean #Tatars were detained too.

Any word from @unesco ?

#Zelenskyy calls out those who 'turn a blind eye' at #Arab League Summit

He told the summit that he is sure they can be "united" against russia, but that "there are some in the world and here that turn a blind eye".

He also introduced the conference to Mustafa Dzhemilev, a representative of the predominantly #Muslim Crimean #Tatars and the former chair of the #Crimean #Tatar #Mejlis

#Ukraine commemorates anniversary of #Crimean Tatars' forced deportation, #genocide

The forced deportations carried out by the Soviets in 1944

From May 18-20, 1944, the Soviet secret policy forcibly deported thousands of indigenous Crimean #Tatars

An estimated 8,000 Crimean Tatars died in the process. Estimates on total deaths from harsh exile conditions range from 34,000 to over 100,000 across thousands of kilometers from #Crimea to #Uzbekistan

79 years ago, on this day, at #Stalin 's orders, the #deportation of the #Crimean #Tatars was launched - thousands died on their way to #Uzbekistan in the cattle wagons and those who survived were not allowed to return home for decades

#Jamala has performed a #Eurovision winning song about it a few years ago:

Mr Zelensky is such a passionate champion of Ukrainian national identity, ready to fight against all things "colonial" — like the land that his ancestors were able to settle, thanks to the colonial expansion of the Russian Empire at the expense of the Crimean Khanate...

#Crimean #Tatar activist Dzhemil #Gafarov has died in Russian #detention.

#Russia ignored repeated calls to provide medical aid and to release Gafarov given his health condition.

Gafarov was detained in the annexed #Crimea in 2019.

According to human rights organizations, the whole process was politically motivated - targeting the Crimean #Tatars; who, as the original inhabitants of the peninsula, began to return in the last decades after the deportations during the times of the #USSR.

RT @TheStudyofWar
#Russian forces and occupation authorities continue to target #Crimean #Tatars under allegations that they associate with a banned pan-Islamist political organization in an effort to associate anti-Russia sentiment with extremist or terrorist activity.

Dice di aver reclutato nel gruppo azeri, tartari e uiguri cinesi e parla con passione dell'emarginazione e dell'oppressione delle minoranze di lingua turca in Russia. Ha affermato che Mosca ha ingiustamente reclutato coscritti per la guerra prevalentemente da regioni remote e più povere della Russia...

@Kenneygeorge @toomas_ilves The very fact that every time we read about "#russians" (in the press or on social media) we have to internally translate it into "all people with russian citizenship, including #Tatars, #Udmurts, #Buryats, #Chechens, #Khakass - you name it" - his very fact is a confirmation of the fact that the English-language narrative of #russia is completely shaped by the russian imperial mythos. The one they hoped to make self-prophetic, but that doesn't have to be!

#Belarusian #propaganda does not lag behind the #Russian one. Here #Solovyov on minimalkas - #Elfirov - believes that "#fascism is good", because there was order there. But in #Ukraine, there is some kind of wrong fascism, because it was "established by #Jews, #Armenians and #Tatars."

Sometimes there are simply no words to describe it. #Propagandists are sick.
