18 May - the Day of Remembrance for the victims of the Crimean Tatar genocide.
In 1944 the Crimea was devastated by a decision of Stalin, who decided that the indigenous people of the peninsula were a threat. The Soviet Union, while the Crimean Tatars were defending it in the war, deported their women, children and parents. Stalin gave the Tatar people a name “traitor ”. World has already failed to prevent the repetition of this crime. Now, by calling the Ukrainian people “nazis”, Russia is using the same scenario to justify its war crimes in the temporarily occupied territories. Including the forced deportation of Ukrainian people through filtration camps to Russian regions.
