Today, we remember the victims of the 1944 deportation of Qirimli from Crimea. Around 200000 people were forcibly removed from their homes. Soviet propaganda created a huge disinfo campaign about "Crimean Tatars as traitors" to justify their genocide & Russification of Crimea: Image

In reality, over 17,000 Qirimli were already serving in the Red Army & fought throughout the war, presenting the country with several Heroes of the Soviet Union and one twice Hero, Amet Khan Sultan. Amet Khan SultanTeyfuq AbdulAbdraim ReshidovUzeir Abduramanov
2/ "Crimean Tatars are a traitorous nation."
As with other peoples, there were a few collaborators among Qirimli during the WW2 occupation. Most were killed or arrested by the NKVD. Blaming an entire nation for the actions of some is a crime that has hallmarks of genocide. Image
