Tatar Nation: The Other Crimea

May Russia do right by the atrocities they committed on the Tatars. Time will tell. 20% parliament is a start. Recognition of their culture is a start. Acknowledging their land rights (which they squatted for decades) should be a start. Accept the Tatars, Russia.

The Tatars had an independent nation in the Crimea until Catherine annexed it in 1783. Stalin later committed genocide on them. Give these people the entire Crimea so Russia nor Ukraine gets to keep it.
