The Crimean Tatars arguably suffered the most under Stalin, and knowing anything about the persecution of ethnic minorities it's a harrowing and deeply sad thought.
I don't think so. Stalin did screw them over, but he did far worse throughout the empire. He had people butchered as well, don't forget that. Being sent to places like Uzbekistan or Turkmenistan- probably to break apart their ethnic group so their will be less chance of a Rebellion is little compared to the other bad Sh^t he was doing.
TagMehirTzedek I'm not talking about the deportation specifically. From Wiki " No other Soviet nationality suffered the decline imposed on the Crimean Tatars; between 1917 and 1933 half the Crimean Tatar population had been killed or deported." My family was shot, imprisoned and sent to Siberia, but my people as a whole fared better.
unicornsification Ok. So were people in my family. Some were imprisoned the other's left the city they were in to other places. And another part fled to Israel during that time before the borders were sealed off tightly.
How many million Russians died during WW2? Millions! Something like 26 million. Soooooo, I'd say that noboby suffered more than the Russians during Stalin.
Nikisright Why minimise the suffering of people who are treated worse on their homeland than the imported Russians, some of whom still believe lies about the Crimean Tatars by Soviet propaganda. A lot of you were killed? Undeniably. But is your language still alive? Have your customs been destroyed? Were you forced to renounce your customs and traditions? No? That's more than hundreds of ethnic minorities can say. Numbers really don't matter when you are talking about genocide versus war casualties and shitty economic policy casualties. Get over yourselves, russians were favored in the Soviet union over every other ethnicity and nationality.
I love the Crimean Tatar tribe. Small, but so heartfull. Şerefsiz Stalin tried to throw them out in 1944. :/ Lehistandan selamlar arıpteşler! Işleriniz hayırlı olsun!

Actually by listen to the Russian it tells you even today they still do jot get the fact that Stalin killed 20 million of his own people. I hate to say these people were lucky but they were that they were deported and not sent to camps or just killed like so many Army. In fact Stalin even had 30,000 of his own troops killed by his people because he could not trust them.
Same thing happaned in Lithuania, people who opposed the government in any way or help the partisan freedom fighters were deported to Siberia or Kazakhstan where they had to live in unbearable conditions. Many did not return ofcourse and russians never did or will pay for the damage they caused.
Grishan Poke Well, there can't be any collaboration with a country who occupies you. Not occupying and deporting people and theyr families would be a good start, no?
The women at 5:20 I couldn't agree with her more than I do right now. It almost makes me cry but its the truth, politics ruins everything because of wealth and power. No one can believe that everything is alright. Everyone is different and won't agree with each other. I'm not saying there shouldn't be religion or politics. I'm saying everyone should at least agree with each other and not argue about whats right.
It is very s I had a realization years ago it's almost like my family my mother used to have a very large family four Brothers five sisters and every year we would always get together for holidays at one place whether they would argue and fight about things that happened years ago we still got to get it. Obviously it runs deeper than that religion politics broke but the world is similar like that and that it was almost nearly impossible because of what happened years ago to get people to come together and agree and live in harmony It's just sad but true

Good they are not native to Europe, they are from East Asia, and central Asia used to be West eurasian before being ethnically cleansed by mongols and Turks
Hamza Tahir The Crimean Tatars aren't native to Crimea, but rather to the steppes of central asia (where stalin sent them). The Greeks have a longer presence there, as do the Armenians. They support Russia. The majority of people support Russia.
Aran S Your right! but by the time the Russian empire set eyes on it, it was of majority Tatar ethnic affiliation. Cultures change in every region over time, no surprise.
Hamza Tahir Your right! By the time the Russian Federation set eyes on it, it was of majority Russian ethnic affiliation. Cultures change in every region over time, no surprise.
Oh and Russia didn't ethnically cleanse most of Russia. If they did then it would be a similar situation as with America, with the various native people being an irrelevant minority almost everywhere. Instead in Russia the native people of many areas form the majority. Even the circaasians still live in their homeland (albeit in smaller numbers than abroad)
Aran S Nice try, search it up. how can the culture affiliation in Crimea switch from Tatar to Russian slavic if it never switched hands from the Crimean khanate until Russia came in. Im a 100% sure there wasnt immigration.
Its a shame that Ukraine has not helped them very much up to this point....but Ukraine barely has any money for roads, let alone helping a community of millions. If you need proof, just try driving on their roads, they are constantly full of pot holes. But I wonder how Yanukovich got money to build all this mansions (he had 5 of them)?
"He didn't send them to the far north, he sent them to a warm southern region." This sentence is out of humanity, empathy and any emotion that makes us human being. It is not surprising cos Russia still making the same shit to the innocent people in Syria. Also people in Syria are not taking a "cozy" trip to Turkey and other countries of Europe. We are grateful for the Judgement Day of The Most Merciful...
cripppton alot of land in eastern and southern Ukraine were Russian majority but as years past Ukrainians inhabitant them city's like Kharkov or Donetsk are good examples of this as they were first a Russian majority!
Lady "Stalin actually saved them" 8:34 should have a conversation with that old deported Tatar man 13:25 and explain him how he /was saved/ and sent to warm nice place to live. That is so typical russian mindset of "saving" someone.
crimea was the motherland before crimean khanate because before khanate the kıpchak turks live in crimea and north of the black sea.İn historical books,this territory was named desth i kıpchak(kıpchak lands)
cant believe people are bringing up something that happened in the 1700 century and calling the tatars hypocrites its literally the dumbest thing i ever heard
***** keep eating up your russian propaganda buddy just know theirs 2 kinds of education empowerment and indoctrination and your educated perfectly indoctrinated good job
One thing in their favor is the support of Tatarstan, their president already urged Putin to apply the Rehabilitation Law (for victims of Stalin) to the Crimean Tatars. Russia has a chance now to show they can do better than Ukraine; settle the land claims, build roads, supply gas, water and electricity. Let's hope they don't screw it up. Wouldn't just be good for the Tatars, it would help Russia internationally, especially in the Muslim world.
now you know what the hell is the russian idea to save people with genocide, save someone with shot in the head and same someone with annexation of another country territories
Tartars are the most oppressed ethnic minority in Russia.and Don't forget the Circassian genocide, my friends. Russia built the Olympic building on the graves of the Circassian genocide victims.Before the Ottomans, the Tartars were already there, in fact the Slavic people were the immigrants.
Reminds me a lot about the occupation of Palestine. Specially how Israelis now live in the houses that were owned by Palestinians hundreds and hundreds of years ago
As a Chinese, it's really not my right to judge. But I want to say that there is no such thing as absolute right or wrong. What's happening in Ukraine maybe good for someone and bad for the others. It maybe bad for Tatars, but it is good for the Russians in Crimea. For example, Russia had occupied 300 million square kms from China's weak Qing Dynasty and support Mongolia claim independency. This of course is a terrible thing for Chinese, but I can imagine it is a good thing for the Russians. There is no happy ending for everyone.
Why do you care that Mongolia is independent? It has it's own culture, history, nature, religion, language, writing system, etc. Why do Chinese want to have everything that they have no cultural or historical claim over?? This is just nationalist propaganda used by your government to scare the people... It's a very effective strategy used by many dictatorships!
Russia also supports China in many things, like order in Xingjiang. And China supports Russia in many things around foreign policy. Russia is not the enemy of China.
Much as I respect Ostrovsky, the Tatars began to return while Gorbachev was still in power. But the majority really did come back after Ukraine became independent. What many forget is that 55% of the Crimean population voted in favor of joining independent Ukraine. In Sevastopol, the supposed hotbed of Russian military patriotism, even more voted in favor. But that has been forgotten under the onslaught of Russian propaganda and disinformation. And in part the Ukrainian leadership was at fault as well, for being infiltrated by Russian fifth columnists and for not understanding the importance of making the public aware of the fact that mainland Ukraine built most of the modern infrastructure in Crimea and provided almost all of the peninsula's potable water and power, as well as 70% of its food and tourists, prior to Russia's power grab in 2014. Today, many Crimeans have fled the peninsula and the people there are suffering in every way possible, including political persecution.
Well part of the problem is that Ukraine never really left Russia until now and have had nothing but corrupt President until now. Putin decide to attack Ukraine because he saw NATO as not caring and a easy target. But Putin forget that people usually fight for their homelike when given a chance. My feeling any Russia who came after 2014 should be out of Crimea. Ukraine will have huge issue after this was finished with rebuilding but hopefully they will invite the right people back and do it right. When these area fell after the Soviet Union failed their was no plan and no nothing. Just the local government and it take years for a new country to get on their feet. If you are American you should look at our own history. It certainly was the Constitution was signed and all was good with never a problem again. Even know we seem to not be able to get along or appreciate everything we have. Unless you are living in the street you are better off than 80% of the world population as far as getting you basic needs fit and yet all most people do is whine over people that their belief are not your business no matter that someone want to go to church or a women marrying another women. It is called freedom.and to have it you have to learn to be tolerate because someone probably does not agree with your lifestyle either so we do best to shut our mouth and live our lives with a little respect, dignity and love. We do not have to agree 100% with everyone to get along.
The "modern infrastructure" dates from soviet times, it was built by the soviet. Also, just because tatars don't like russians does not mean they want to be in ukraine, they don't want to be in either ukraine or russia, and this video illustrate that pretty clearly. So stop your ukraine propaganda, tatars don't want it, just like they don't want russian propaganda.
+Blasius Turski actually sixty percent Russian twenty five percent Ukrainian twelve percent Tatar.. On top of that all the Russians are not Russian, they only say so to avoid harassment.And 100 years ago Ukrainians were the majority.Tatar nation do not give uprinf.com/alt-news/newswire/crimeas-tatars-persecuted-by-stalin-then-putin-now/
+Blasius Turski The Russians doesn't have any claim on Crimea, The Tatars of Crimea are descendens of all kinds of different Culture included but not limited to, Mongols, Turks, Schythians and cummans. Only after 1783 when Russia annexed it from the Crimean Khanate, russians started to live there and starting to overpopulate the Crimean Tatars. Now let's not even forgett after WW2 that the entire Crimean Population was deborted and during this debortation it is estemated somewhere around 46% Crimean Tatars died.
That young woman at 8:21 is the way the world should think. It's sad that the older woman next to her was sitting there starting a rumor of the Tartars and she has no clue just something her parents told her but where I had a problem with it and when she starts saying and almost imo defending her parents rumor. It's sad that we live in a world now and oftentimes why we are in disagreement and fighting against each other is because our parents were not being good parents. Growing up you learn most of everything you know from your parents and they taught us a lot of good and a lot of bad seeing the younger woman's mind hasn't been skewed by her parents and thinking objectively makes me feel good about people and proves that politics and wealth destroy families, communities, states or provinces, and even countries.
The presenter needs to review his history books, it was the Soviets that deported them not _Russia,_ does he also need to be reminded that Stalin was not Russian but Georgian.
1:10 That's not exactly true. Gorbachev allowed Crimean Tatars to return, so it was the late Soviet Union policy. See, for instance, a letter of Milli Firka to Obama. The rest looks accurate (didn't watch to the end).
Also Vice you should do what news outlets fail to do enough and go back in maybe a years time to make sure the government keeps to its word about what they said they will do for the tartars
After the explosions in Novofedorovka, the russians stepped up repressions against the Crimean Tatars. They're searched, people are taken hostage. Already 140 representatives of the Crimean Tatar community were detained in the best traditions of the NKVD.
Thank you for risking your life with your respectable reporting, exposing the truth about the suffering of Crimean Tatars, and the atrocities of Stalin and others towards the Tatars.
I think Putin should allow them their own territory in Crimea these are not the same fundamentalists from Chechnya or Dagestan they are a peaceful people.
That would be problematic, because the Tatars just have a bunch of villages all over Crimea, while the rest live in larger cities with other nationalities. Would be unrealistic, and anyway what is a country of 300k Tatars going to do as independent nation? To be honest for such a small minority they already got many concessions which even the Kurds in Turkey don't get. Its also a myth that most Tatars are anti-Russian, in reality its the corrupt Medjlis with Dzhemilev who is making all the fuss and does not reflect the opinion of most Tatars.
RoGoH308 From minute 12:20 approximately, He asks: Reporter: Russian authorities is good news or bad news?

Wow Simon is very concerned about tatars. and american administration too. as always americans protect muslim people. american are friends to them. do you believe in this?
It is true that historically Tatars were the majority in Crimea, according to the 1785 census 84.1% of the population of the peninsula were Tatars with only 2.2% being Russian, no Ukrainians at that time. The percentage of Tatars after that started declining, by 1897 they were just little more numerous than the Russians at 35.55% and 33.11% respectively. Ukrainians were at 11.84% at the time. By the next census of 1926 Tatars were not longer a majority, making up 25.1% of the population, while Russians accounted for 42.2%. So Tatars lost their majority status in Crimea long before Stalin deported them in 1944. According to the 1939 census Russians made up almost half of the populatin at 49.6% while Tatars stood at 19.4%. Not that Ukrainians never throughout history were the majority in Crimea, the highest percentage of Ukrainians ever there was 26.5% (1970), while Russians were already an overwhelming majority at 67.3%. The number of Tatars - as well as their percentage - increased under Russian occupation: in 2014 there were 277,336 of them while in 2021 there were 284,522.

The one fact that matters today is over 95 percent in Crimea voted to rejoin Russia. The other fact is when one of the world's most reputable Poll Companies from Germany did an in depth Poll in Crimea well after it was back with Russia it showed even a majority of Tartars voted for rejoining Russia and were happy to be back with Russia. That is all that counts. If Vice wanted to be unbiased and present a balanced view why didnt they interview some of the more than 50 percent of Tartars who wanted to rejoin Russia and are happy to be back. Is that too much to ask. Balanced reporting.

Ukraine did not let Tatars to have Tatar Language as the state language of Crimea. Now under Russian rule Crimea has 3 state languages: Russian, Tatar, and Ukrainian (even for a few people).
Jews as usual will never say the whole truth. Lazarev won people's votes in Europe. Ukraine had more votes from Jury. Why not to mention that fact that Lazarev is liked by more people in Europe. And by the way more people in Ukraine itself voted for the Russian than for the Ukrainian. So, Jamala has no moral victory -- Lazarev has who took the majority of votes from people of all Europe and Ukraine, in particular. I was in Israel two years ago and saw how deep is Palestine/Israel conflict and the creation of the Palestinian state with the capital in Eastern Jerusalem will happen soon. I has been recently in Crimea and seen that Tatars like idea of being with Russia now. What can they expect from unpredictable bandera in Kiev? Tatars have chosen Russia.
+inokentii petrov People in Ukraine cant vote for Ukraine, you cant vote for your own country. Ukraine public gave Russia 12 points, Russian public gave Ukraine 10 points. Russian people voted for Jamala second most.

The Crimean Tatars arguably suffered the most under Stalin, and knowing anything about the persecution of ethnic minorities it's a harrowing and deeply sad thought.
I don't think so. Stalin did screw them over, but he did far worse throughout the empire. He had people butchered as well, don't forget that. Being sent to places like Uzbekistan or Turkmenistan- probably to break apart their ethnic group so their will be less chance of a Rebellion is little compared to the other bad Sh^t he was doing.
TagMehirTzedek I'm not talking about the deportation specifically. From Wiki " No other Soviet nationality suffered the decline imposed on the Crimean Tatars; between 1917 and 1933 half the Crimean Tatar population had been killed or deported." My family was shot, imprisoned and sent to Siberia, but my people as a whole fared better.
unicornsification Ok. So were people in my family. Some were imprisoned the other's left the city they were in to other places. And another part fled to Israel during that time before the borders were sealed off tightly.

"stalin saved them" they really don't know anything about Tatars do they
of course they do they just don't admit it they are still using a five year plan for fucks sake
but this version is realy logic or u have another version?
***** There is no evidence to that other than the soviet union using that as an excuse to deport them in the first place
Grishan Poke the original Stalin five year plans had logic but the human cost was pretty high and they weren't very effective im just saying that Russia hasn't changed since the time of the tsars.
***** No, but they are being discriminated because of their past. Germans a little less, perhaps.

Tatar lived there since the Mongolian invasion of Europe . They weren't muslims at all . Study history

Oh and Russia didn't ethnically cleanse most of Russia. If they did then it would be a similar situation as with America, with the various native people being an irrelevant minority almost everywhere. Instead in Russia the native people of many areas form the majority. Even the circaasians still live in their homeland (albeit in smaller numbers than abroad)

Russia has a chance now to show they can do better than Ukraine; settle the land claims, build roads, supply gas, water and electricity. Let's hope they don't screw it up. Wouldn't just be good for the Tatars, it would help Russia internationally, especially in the Muslim world.

As a Chinese, it's really not my right to judge.
But I want to say that there is no such thing as absolute right or wrong. What's happening in Ukraine maybe good for someone and bad for the others. It maybe bad for Tatars, but it is good for the Russians in Crimea.
For example, Russia had occupied 300 million square kms from China's weak Qing Dynasty and support Mongolia claim independency. This of course is a terrible thing for Chinese, but I can imagine it is a good thing for the Russians.
There is no happy ending for everyone.
Why do you care that Mongolia is independent? It has it's own culture, history, nature, religion, language, writing system, etc. Why do Chinese want to have everything that they have no cultural or historical claim over?? This is just nationalist propaganda used by your government to scare the people... It's a very effective strategy used by many dictatorships!
Russia also supports China in many things, like order in Xingjiang. And China supports Russia in many things around foreign policy. Russia is not the enemy of China.

Real owners of Crimiea. Greetings from Turkey. Ottoman Brotherhood!
Baibars0657, Ottoman empire doesn’t exist anymore. Russians had crimea before the ottomans even existed. Wake up and educate yourself
Much as I respect Ostrovsky, the Tatars began to return while Gorbachev was still in power. But the majority really did come back after Ukraine became independent. What many forget is that 55% of the Crimean population voted in favor of joining independent Ukraine. In Sevastopol, the supposed hotbed of Russian military patriotism, even more voted in favor. But that has been forgotten under the onslaught of Russian propaganda and disinformation. And in part the Ukrainian leadership was at fault as well, for being infiltrated by Russian fifth columnists and for not understanding the importance of making the public aware of the fact that mainland Ukraine built most of the modern infrastructure in Crimea and provided almost all of the peninsula's potable water and power, as well as 70% of its food and tourists, prior to Russia's power grab in 2014. Today, many Crimeans have fled the peninsula and the people there are suffering in every way possible, including political persecution.
Well part of the problem is that Ukraine never really left Russia until now and have had nothing but corrupt President until now. Putin decide to attack Ukraine because he saw NATO as not caring and a easy target. But Putin forget that people usually fight for their homelike when given a chance. My feeling any Russia who came after 2014 should be out of Crimea. Ukraine will have huge issue after this was finished with rebuilding but hopefully they will invite the right people back and do it right. When these area fell after the Soviet Union failed their was no plan and no nothing. Just the local government and it take years for a new country to get on their feet. If you are American you should look at our own history. It certainly was the Constitution was signed and all was good with never a problem again. Even know we seem to not be able to get along or appreciate everything we have. Unless you are living in the street you are better off than 80% of the world population as far as getting you basic needs fit and yet all most people do is whine over people that their belief are not your business no matter that someone want to go to church or a women marrying another women. It is called freedom.and to have it you have to learn to be tolerate because someone probably does not agree with your lifestyle either so we do best to shut our mouth and live our lives with a little respect, dignity and love. We do not have to agree 100% with everyone to get along.
The "modern infrastructure" dates from soviet times, it was built by the soviet. Also, just because tatars don't like russians does not mean they want to be in ukraine, they don't want to be in either ukraine or russia, and this video illustrate that pretty clearly. So stop your ukraine propaganda, tatars don't want it, just like they don't want russian propaganda.

Thank you for risking your life with your respectable reporting, exposing the truth about the suffering of Crimean Tatars, and the atrocities of Stalin and others towards the Tatars.
I think Putin should allow them their own territory in Crimea these are not the same fundamentalists from Chechnya or Dagestan they are a peaceful people.
Agreed. Putin is making a lot of enemies. He needs to start giving concessions otherwise there will be trouble for him.
John Smith Putin needs the hearts of his people.
That would be problematic, because the Tatars just have a bunch of villages all over Crimea, while the rest live in larger cities with other nationalities. Would be unrealistic, and anyway what is a country of 300k Tatars going to do as independent nation? To be honest for such a small minority they already got many concessions which even the Kurds in Turkey don't get. Its also a myth that most Tatars are anti-Russian, in reality its the corrupt Medjlis with Dzhemilev who is making all the fuss and does not reflect the opinion of most Tatars.

Wow Simon is very concerned about tatars. and american administration too. as always americans protect muslim people. american are friends to them. do you believe in this?
It is true that historically Tatars were the majority in Crimea, according to the 1785 census 84.1% of the population of the peninsula were Tatars with only 2.2% being Russian, no Ukrainians at that time. The percentage of Tatars after that started declining, by 1897 they were just little more numerous than the Russians at 35.55% and 33.11% respectively. Ukrainians were at 11.84% at the time. By the next census of 1926 Tatars were not longer a majority, making up 25.1% of the population, while Russians accounted for 42.2%. So Tatars lost their majority status in Crimea long before Stalin deported them in 1944. According to the 1939 census Russians made up almost half of the populatin at 49.6% while Tatars stood at 19.4%. Not that Ukrainians never throughout history were the majority in Crimea, the highest percentage of Ukrainians ever there was 26.5% (1970), while Russians were already an overwhelming majority at 67.3%. The number of Tatars - as well as their percentage - increased under Russian occupation: in 2014 there were 277,336 of them while in 2021 there were 284,522.

Simon was born to report against Russia & he's doing Great 😂😂 he's lucky he has a job because of Russia..
Крым вошел в состав РФ, только по причине наличия в нем важного военно стратегического объекта, не больше, не меньше. Защита русского населения от националистов, это сентиментальная спекуляция, рассчитанная на ограниченных людей со средне-специальным образованием, на так называемое большинство. Но плебс "хавает", ему более ничего не надо, даже не зададут логичный вопрос, - А что Харьков? Днепропетровск? Николаев? Донецк? Луганск? (Там нету Черноморского Флота! Извините.) Всему населению Крыма, раздадут фантастические, сладкие обещания, особенно татарам. Далее отодвинут выполнение своих обещаний на долгий срок, позднее на "неопределенный". Перспектива экономических санкций, создаст большие сложности для развития полуострова и возможность для оправдания невыполненных обещаний ))). Россия встала (в который раз) на путь экономической изоляции. Все её аморфные союзники, имеют приоритетные перспективы отношений с США, чем с РФ, либо сами уже являются изгоями. Если встать на место крымского татарина, то недоверие, самое естественное отношение к происходящему, и могу сказать оно не ошибочное, всем должно быть понятно, лучше вы жить, чем прежде, не будете. Ну, а татарам придется быть по факту крайними на очереди по навешиванию лапши на уши.
Que?
Religious and ethnic groups are always so nice and sweet when in the minority!
Once they are the majority, holy shit!
koustav de Yes, like Russians and Chinese
The Greeks have been in Crimea for much longer than the Tatars.
The one fact that matters today is over 95 percent in Crimea voted to rejoin Russia. The other fact is when one of the world's most reputable Poll Companies from Germany did an in depth Poll in Crimea well after it was back with Russia it showed even a majority of Tartars voted for rejoining Russia and were happy to be back with Russia. That is all that counts. If Vice wanted to be unbiased and present a balanced view why didnt they interview some of the more than 50 percent of Tartars who wanted to rejoin Russia and are happy to be back. Is that too much to ask. Balanced reporting.
May Allah bless our muslim brothers and sisters in Crimea

Russians do not respect? )
Can we just decide if the Muslims are our friends or enemies already.
Lol, they are our friends and our enemies, same as any other people.
***** They f$%ked and are still F#$king each other up. Learn some real history, the Shia-Sunni war was going on ever since the death of Mohammad. The tribal wars were going on even before Mohammed. Things didn't change, just different times.
*****
"you guys destroyed their lands"
Have you seen their lands? I think we made them better.
"destabilized their country"
Which country is the muslim country exactly?
"killed their leaders"
Their leaders should have stayed away from our towers.
"I would never forgive such a thing if I was living in those countries in the Middle East. "
So we are all in agreement? May the superior fighting force win.
totallyunmotivated all you just sad ,is bullshit , every sentence is full of lie
I am an muslim and i will tell you whats going on. There some people who are working for the west that are trying to separate the muslims so USA, RUSSIA or BRITAIN will invade the arabs THIS is what they want...
I see a large resemblance to the Jewish people and Israel here.
Yeah almost the same story.

8:30 Stalin, not such a bad guy afterall,... right ?
if you want to learn these tatar turks where they came from search scythia.everytime russia was homelands of turks.scythia,huns,altinorda and thousand turkic empires.
Sir, without realizing it, you are blurring the Crimean-Tatar identity, you must say not the "Tatars", but not being lazy, namely Crimean-Tatars!
This is a unique people, they need special attention, they should not be mixed with others.....🙏
Ukraine did not let Tatars to have Tatar Language as the state language of Crimea. Now under Russian rule Crimea has 3 state languages: Russian, Tatar, and Ukrainian (even for a few people).

Jews as usual will never say the whole truth. Lazarev won people's votes in Europe. Ukraine had more votes from Jury. Why not to mention that fact that Lazarev is liked by more people in Europe. And by the way more people in Ukraine itself voted for the Russian than for the Ukrainian. So, Jamala has no moral victory -- Lazarev has who took the majority of votes from people of all Europe and Ukraine, in particular. I was in Israel two years ago and saw how deep is Palestine/Israel conflict and the creation of the Palestinian state with the capital in Eastern Jerusalem will happen soon. I has been recently in Crimea and seen that Tatars like idea of being with Russia now. What can they expect from unpredictable bandera in Kiev? Tatars have chosen Russia.
+inokentii petrov sore loserputin sucks
So you did not like the fact that the people of Europe and Ukraine in majority voted for Russia?
+inokentii petrov People in Ukraine cant vote for Ukraine, you cant vote for your own country. Ukraine public gave Russia 12 points, Russian public gave Ukraine 10 points. Russian people voted for Jamala second most.
Crimea is Turkic
Crimean Tatars are our brothers. We have Same blood.
Turkey

CRIMEA THE MONGOLOID SHITHOLE , TURKEY IS NOT YOUR HOMELAND .
6:30 ağzına sağlık dayı!
that now in the Crimea with the Tatars ... the Crimean Tatar language has become one of the state languages, the Tatars have their own media in the Tatar language. the Tatars have quotas for all power structures. such quotas that there are not so many people willing to go to power. Mejlis does not recognize nature. Tatars have no problems in Crimea now. as there are no other 300 nationalities of Russia 🇷🇺
Crimean tatars has been living in Crimea since the time of Berke khan of Golden Horde. It has nothing to do with ottoman empire
It is false. Crimean Tatars are living there since Cumans.
I guess growning up in a communist nation, lying and believing lies to later spread to others, is just another thing.
