SELAM Brothers I'm also CRAMIAN TATAR but I and my family didn't emigrated may Father how is CRAMEAN TATAR decided to stay in UKRAINE with my UKRAINIAN Mother
I'm a Crimean Tatar. My grandmother never talked about the deportation. She didn't talk much at all. And never in Tatar. My parents and their siblings speak russian only. It's only with my generation that the rebirth of the unique Crimean Tatar language and culture began, which was brutally crushed by the russian annexation in 2014.
I'm half CRAMIAN TATAR and half UKRAINIAN and my CRAMEAN TATAR Grandfather always took about hes deportation and the genocide that the russians did to awer people
I am Crimeean Tatar from Romania and my paternal granfather imposed me the tatar language and culture but I was always discriminated based on my etnicity- at school, at work and so on - The last ofense was when I was betean up my doctors who did not care that I have a back operation to corect scoliosis since I was 17 years old. But I survived in spite the fact that I could not walk for 6 months. I left to Italy to recover and return and sens them to jail. Nobody will understand the tatar spirit.
1944 by Jamala is about the Tatar deportation and genocide. It won Eurovision back in 2016, and honestly, it’s the only piece of media that I’ve heard really talking about it.
It's even more so relevant today too. In November last year Jamala has been placed on Russia's most wanted list and arrested and charged in abstentia for allegedly spreading misinformation about Russia's military in the song's lyrics. She's living in exile abroad because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Russia originally tried to get 1944 removed from Eurovision because it was too political today. Russia under Putin wants to 100% repeat the horrors of Stalin's rule in Crimea and try to excuse and wash away anything Stalin did.
@@rinatenitska also there a lot of "useful idiots" on the West plus Chinese propagandists - who do not want to "taint USSR and Communism", so they are actively denying this happening or justifying it as something that was must to be done.
It is not forgotten. I am Kalmyk (Kalmyks are mongolic ethnic group historically based in the south of European Russia) and here in Kalmykia this is taught in schools and most elderly people never forgave the soviet government. There is also the national 'Day of Mourning' on the day when decree on the deportation was issued. In 1943 Kalmyks, as a whole ethnicity, were accused of treason and collaboration with nazis and scattered all across Siberia. Most of the deported were women, children and elderly people. Then, men were taken from the front, only to be sent to one of gulag's building projects. Don't forget that many of them didn't even know Russian and NKVD scared local people stiff with rumours about cannibals, savages and nazi collaborators. Kalmyks as all other deported peoples could not leave the place of their deportation under threat of 20 years in gulag. And even after Stalin's death, Kalmyks could not return to their homeland until 1956. Between thirty and fifty percents of all the deported died. Kalmyk language is now under the threat of extinction.
I think what you are saying is true for ethnicities that were particularly mistreated during soviet times, and without a doubt, the chess players of the Union were no exception from these horrific crimes against the population. My grandmother where German and had to leave her historical homeland, but almost everyone she knew got killed so she very rarely talked about it, and I had to learn about this myself. It seems to me thought like Kalmykia is still mistreated I just hope that things become better for all different ethnic groups inside Russia and Ukraine.
There is actually a small group of Kalmyks in the town I grew up in in the US. I went to school with some of them and they were often invited to perform their traditional music for the schools in the area.
I'm Crimean Tatar too. My ancestors came from Crimean to Türkiye. My family had heard about the genocide from their relatives and were deeply saddened. They always told us about it. 😢I am grateful to you for the work you have done.
I live in KZ and heard a saying, "Where there are Tartars there is trouble." I am beginning to understand where this comes from. The good ole Soviet Union where lies and BS reigned supreme and continue to do so as the Russian Federation.
It's not forgotten, at least in Crimea it isn't. A lot of the newcomers, who moved to Crimea after WWII (which my family was a part of, my granparents moved there in 70-s) are still pretty unfriendly to say the least towards tatars, who have returned to their land. I myself always felt a bit of a disconnect, couldn't reaaly understand them, until very recently: I couldn't feel the connection with Crimean land like they do, because they have generations after generations of history there, while me is the first generation, who was born there in my family. That's why it was relatively easy for me to leave Crimea behind after 2014, and tatars are staying there despite everything
@@mitchyoung93 they're not, but they lived there for hundreds of years, whereas a lot of Slavic people - decades at most. The same goes for eastern regions of Ukraine, wiped out by Holodomor - russian people moved where Ukrainians lived for generations, but they don't feel at home there, there's no such connection to the land, they just know, to this day, that it's not really theirs
@@mitchyoung93 "of any sort are not" quite a bold claim. As it depends of the definition of indigenous And from claim itself I can assume it worth noting that russians are way less indigenous to 95% of russia's territory than Crimean tatars to Crimea. FYI they are mostly decedents of Cumans, who have been lived in Crimea and surrounding steppes for around 1000 years, if that isn't indigenous, then I don't know what is
Yes, I was in Riga last summer, and this is in one of their museums. Just purging people out of a region, totally unneccessary, really brutal policy by the Stalin regime
The same things were all where russians were... Here in Ukraine it was in many places, and up to 1M of people were deported in other places all over ussr Same thing was done to Ukrainians in Poland in 1947-1949 Same thing was done to a lot of nations of Nothern Caucasus( some of them were wiped out completely )
My great great Polish grandparents knew people killed by and Deported by (they themselves had to escape from Ukraine to Poland) Soviet troops, both during ww2 and after ww2. Stalin is absolutely terrible
I cannot stand the people who defend or support him. In America many of them who feel like this "hate American anti Stalin propaganda" unaware that they are simply falling for another nations propaganda. You can be critical of your own nations actions, but if you use your hate to justify the opposing evil.... You are still blind
Same with my family being deported deep into Russia during soviet invasion they call brotherly aid. And they still try to lie they helped and the war started in 41...
Marx was a bum and yet the communist disciples still try to sell his “philosophy” on how society should be structured. I’ll never understand the delusion and laziness of mind that it takes to not see that the promised “utopia” has resulted in millions of deaths every single time. .
Whos Stalin? U mean hitler? Know ur history. There was tojo. Moosaleeni. Hitler. And churchhill. Stalin isn't a person. It's a place. 😂😂😂. Omg no wonder white supremacy is so weak and blm dominates. #blm BLM!!!!!
I mean, it immediately forced most of its citizens into poverty. The Soviet union was doing very well in the 70s and 80s. Nowhere near the horrific regime during Stalin's era
@@nilshaas8434What wonderful times those were. The shootings stopped with a death of stalin, but people who dared to speak about people's rights were locked up in mental hospitals or imprisoned on trumped-up charges. Read about the dissident movement and the Ukrainian Helsinki Group, for example
@@raymondhartmeijer9300 Ok, so? Point is that many people inside the USSR didn't to be part of it. Russians can try to improve in something without looking behind maybe
It did not collapse. It was a negotiated mostly peaceful end the Russians saw that the Warsaw Pact and Republics like Baltics and Ukraine were not needed and cost more then they were worth. They were allowed freedom and independence and Germany was allowed reunification through negotiations like NATO's promise not to expand east and Ukraine's declaration of independence saying it would not become a member of any alliance and continue the same peaceful relationship with Russia. The Russian economy collapsed after that's a different story. As is the US Empire which is collapsing because they are making the mistake of trying to keep it thru violence.
@@PatrickHenryggSon More correctly, the USSR was Abolished by the party elite, bc of internal struggle. To say the Union "Fell" or "Collapsed" is using dramatic words that have no relation to reality
Russian propaganda has intensified. I had a middle aged Slovakian tell me just last week that "Russia never invaded anyone before this Ukraine war." Can you believe that? A CZECHOSLOVAKIAN whose own parents told me the story of how they spent early 1968 dodging Warsaw pact tanks and Russian troops in their city because there was a curfew imposed? When someone who had family in a city that was directly invaded by Russian troops denies Russia ever invaded anywhere you know you got a very serious information war going on
Thank you so much for talking about this important and truly horrible part of our history which still continues. I really hope more people would know and recognize it.
5 months before the Tatars, Stalin and Beria committed genocide of the Chechen Ingush peoples. Operation "Chechevitsa" in February 23 1944. Read about it. Horrific atrocities commited by the soviet regime. People who lived in mountains and were difficult to transport were executed in place, (Khaibakh village massacre, over 700 burned alive). USSR was just as bad, if not worse, than Nazi Germany.
USSR was not worse than Germany, it was equally as bad. They had more time and more different ethnicities they wanted to exterminate. In Pre-war West Poland the Germans deported hundreds of thousands of Polish people to make room for Germans. They deported them a bit south and also as workers into Germany. Also the Germans murdered roughly 70k Germans who were in hospitals and insane asylums. So people who had demetia, epilepsy, schizophrenics, or other incurable mental or genetic defects. It was to promote efficiency. Those people didn't use ressources of the Reich any longer and they need the space for the wounded of the war. Brutal, but kind of logical.
God, imagine being in the Soviet Union during World War 2 and having to decide between Hitler and Stalin as to which psychopathic dictator you wanted to treat you like a subhuman? I honestly can't think of anything more tragic.
@@mykolastrunce5457Nothing. Stalin was a racist and a genocidal madman. It's insane to make Hitler out as worst because of his racial policies. Just goes to show how ignorant people have become
The narrative that just Hitler was terrible comes from west, who never have expierenced, what it was to live under soviet union. They could not tell, that west allied someone equal terrible as hitler. Noone wanted more war, aftrr it finished, so they ignored stalins crime.
Empires brutalize those who get in their way. The Russian revolution replaced the Tsarist regime with a new group of gangsters with new flags and colours, much like Putin eventually did after the USSR collapsed.
Here's an interesting thing... The Tatar population of Crimea in 2014 was more than ten percent and the Tatars have no love of Russia with good reason. Yet somehow 95% of Crimeans voted to "Join Russia". Bit odd that.
@@johnrockwell5834 And yet the Russian Federation is once again treating Tatars like second class citizens, seizing their property (as well as that of those considered loyal to Ukraine) and imprisoning those who speak out against it. Oh and invading it's neighbours. Russia doesn't seem to have changed all that much at heart, does it?
Thank you for sharing this important topic. The narrative about Tatar-German collaboration is actively spread by russia these days and Tatars are suppressed in arrested actively after Crimea occupation in 2014.
Honestly, when I was in school, they told us that the Tartars were a people that used to exist. I am gladdened to hear that they are still here, albeit a struggle to survive, but surviving nonetheless!
Tatars are pretty well-loved over here in Romania. Ironic, given our history, but if anything, some of them integrate too good, and end up absorbed by us.
@@romankravchenko4736no, Krimean Tatars (Qirımlılar) and Tatars are as different nationalities as Czechs and Lithuanians. We can know them now under similar names just because of colonialism
@@nepatsiuk 1. The statement i commented was on tatars in general. 2. All tatars in Eurasia are descendants of turk prides of Golden Horde, so they are kinda similar (like slavs for example). 3. Crimean tatars had moved to Crimea in XIII-XVII first with mongol invasion, than due to collapse of Golden Horde and Tartaria later. I'd say they are like Brits and Aussies.
As if I needed another reminder why Stalin was such a brutal leader. The whole gulags thing was bad enough, the previous video about him purging his own military of traitors was insane on another level, but now this? I pray to God WWIII never happens! 🙏
Countries that were ruled by communist greeted with flowers and gifts the nzi army. They were in such misery that they prefered the more humane methods of the germans. Just because they won the war and erased and sugar coated their crimes, people who suffered it did not forget and didnt let their children and grandchildren forget.
Stalin was the Georgian ally of the criminal America , UK & France . the Soviet Union was controlled by Georgians , Jews & Ukrainians. Germans were the good side of this war , Putin & Russians are correcting history right now by destroying the criminal West & their Ukrainian allies . TRT magazine 2 yıl önce published : "How Ukrainian-origin leaders dominated the Soviet Union" ....
@@Dontdoit_Literally did, entire areas of ukraine joined the nazis to fight the soviets because of how terribly they were treated. Literally the nazi officer that the Canadians had a standing ovation for was a Ukrainian SS officer lmao.
Eh, Mao is not ordering people to die. He ordered for massive reform and it failed spectacularly. Man's a goddamn emperor on high, he did not care about anyone's life as long as he got to create his communist maoist utopia
Hitler caused a lot more deaths and suffering than Stalin or Mao. I mean, Mao was responsible for a lot of deaths too, but this was mainly bc of ridiculous economic policies he initiated
@@channeler231exactly right, Leopold wrote the textbook on how the exploit an entire nation. The whole of Congo was a slave labourcamp for the kings benefits. Horrible dehumanizing stuff
It baffles me that Stalin isn’t held with the same contempt as Hitler. I think a case could easily be made that Stalin was even worse. Patton was right we should have kept going after defeating Germany and turned on the Soviet Union.
it shouldn't baffle you. the present contemprt for Hitler was manufactured by the people who admired Stalin, or worked under his control. my guess is, the main GOAL of this contempt (despite being deserved) is to SHADOW the stalin's role in the WW2 history.
Simple answer is their state won the war, despite the collapse of the USSR it was many years after his death and so for many decades the winner gets to write history. Only after the collapse of the USSR does many details start to emerge and by then decades has passed, much of the horror got consigned to be footnotes in history books. Same as Winston Churchill knowingly and needlessly continue to export food from India as the country faces their worst famine in history, that played a big part for India's demand for independence after WW2. Also part of why British voted him out as Prime Minister after the war despite by all outward appearances he should have easily won the election by popularity and war hero status, British people does not want someone like that to govern them with the war over. But all those details get pushed to the side notes in history.
Turn on the Soviets and keep fighting a war for decades to come? Vast areas of Siberia are still inaccessible today. Imagine trying to get through with heavy machinery back in 1945. A lot of the rail and road infrastructure was built after the war, by German POWs and gulag prisoners.
It depends whom you ask. If you go to Eastern Europe then rest assured that Stalin will be held in the same contempt as Hitler as a bare minimum. Why that isn't the case in Western Europe or the USA is easy: we never had a hot war with Stalin. So the attention and focus shifts to Hitler because either you were (planned to be) occupied by the Nazi's (UK, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Denmark, etc), or you were basically their (direct) collaborator (Italy, Spain). People here just don't have direct experience with the Soviet Union while they do have experience with the nazi occupation and depending to which community you belong the Holocaust. In the end, history is always local. You care about what your locality has direct experience with because that is what is of influence. Europeans don't care about the regimes from Latin America or what the Japanese did. But the reverse is true too, many Asians have a lot to say about the Japanese occupation or colonial wars but regimes in Latin America are far removed from them, as is the Holocaust and Hitler.
2:05 A tiny note of clarification; when Lithuanians are named as taking part in the uprising, that includes Belarusians. At the time the term Lithuanian encompassed both the Baltic and the Slavic people of the old Grand Dutchy. The separation into Baltic Lithuania and Slavin Belarus came later. I know the video is not about that at all, but credit, where credit is due. Rebelion against imperial Russia is a worthy cause after all! 😉
@Dreju78. No dude. Russians and Bielorussians are Russians. Their languages were the same until about 700 years ago. Lithuanian isn't even Slavic. Plus Lithuanians were either Cathlic or eventually protestant. Bielorussians, like Russians, are Orthodox. These are deep and profound divisions...The Lithuanians were a foreign nobility exploiting Eastern Slav orthodox people.
@@mitchyoung93 No, Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians are all Ruthenians/Rusyn. Those are NOT the same as being Russians It's like saying ty hat the Dutch or English are Germans cause they used to speak the same language some centuries back..
@@mitchyoung93 As to the nobility being so foreign; how do you explain the fact that the majority of the nobility was actually Orthodox? As to "not ecen slavic" comment; both baltic and slavic people have the same source: the unimaginatively named baltoslavic. Your own logic says they're the same cause waaay back they used to be the same.
I am a Crimeean Tatar from România. My ancestors left Rusia and Crimeea because of the discrimination but the situation in Romania become similar between 1945 -1960bwhen we were expelled from the region Dobrogea Romania in Turkey. Ironically the situation after Revolution 1989 in democracy become worst and now because of the war between Rusia and Ukraine the Ukranian imigrants are better treated than tatars which are Romanian Citizen and respect the Romanian law. Thank you for every video. You are extremelly well informed. ❤
The hammer and sickle meant something else. It’s like the swastika, it got used by terrible people despite what it stood for. Most People don’t find it ‘cool’, they just want an end to a system that has just as many atrocities to its name.
The symbolism and meaning of the hammer and sickle is a far cry from the horrific policies enacted by some dictators! It’s an idea, not an endorsement of genocide or even specific policies. The hammer and sickle themselves are the tools of the industrial workers and the peasant farmers, crossed together they represent solidarity between the two groups- essentially solidarity and cooperation among the poors and normies in order to attain power and better their lives. There’s a lot of little details and distinction between the faction, but the very broad idea is support for working people and the idea that the people who do the work and make the stuff shouldn’t be starving when they are making someone else million dollar bonuses. Please DO NOT conflate the actions of Stalin and Mao with the philosophy! They are _not_ related! If anyone is interested, season 10 of Revolutions! (A podcast) is a super deep dive into the Russian revolution but in a very beginner friendly way!
Well, you could argue the same thing about the swastika right? But it is not what a certain thing was supposed to be, but rather what it became. Hammer and sickle world-wide means genocide, failed economies, oppression and murder.
Even Soviet official census had 50+% of Crimean Tatars in 1920s, but in 1950s there were only 0.2% of them left on a peninsula. And first deportation was decade after Russian Empire occupied Crimea for the first time, when from 85+% of Crimean Tatrs only 50% left living there until Stalin's times.
@@mxMik search the term 'racist'. And yes, this is the Russki Mir at its finest. Tatars started suffering when they got invaded by the Russian Empire. Did you not watch the video?

Ingrian Finns were first deported from 1929. 1.8 million kulaks were deported in 1930-31. 1937 saw the forced transfer of all ethnic Koreans from the Far East. Then came the Second World War and a bloody spring cleaning of all distrusted minorities from the western regions, the Black Sea and the Caucasus. These included Poles, Volga Germans, Kola Norwegians, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Karelian Finns, Crimean Tatars, Crimean Greeks, Kalmyks, Balkars, Karachays, Meskhetian Turks, Kurds, Hemshins, Karapapaks, Chechens, Ingush, Romanians, Bulgarians, Armenians and Ukrainians. Other deportations included returning Soviet POWs, for whom Stalin reserved a deep suspicion. And let's not forget the dissidents, poets, enemies of the people, and religious minorities. Or those purged from the military and Communist Party officials who had fallen from grace and members of their families.
I was fortunate to listen to a presentation by a Ukrainian-Russian born in Crimea. She was the only person in her family that didn't give in to Russian indoctrination. What surprised me the most was when she stated "80-85% of people that live in Crimea, they do not trace ancestors rooted in Crimea before 1945. Almost everyone was incentivised to move there by the Soviet Union in the second stage of the ethnic cleansing campaign of Crimea after the Tartar genocide".
@@IanPendleton-gh6ox He has excellent writers and occasionally chiming in with an interesting anecdote is fine. The problem is that on some of the channels, for example Casual Criminalist he interrupts the script literally every sentence and in some cases doesn't even finish sentences before going off an a tangent. It gets unbalanced and his comments are often incredibly mundane and repetitive like the coked-up guy at a party who thinks every word out of his mouth is witty and intriguing.
Fair enough. I personally don't mind them, but I also don't watch the videos on that channel all that often, so I can see how that can get annoying.@@sadhucat4476
You mean Volynian tragedy? I can recommend you a plenty of literature how Poles and Ukrainians been manipulated into hating each other by soviet and hitlers regimes.
Always remember. The official soviet history says "liberated from the nazis". It never says anything about liberating the country or peoples to form free states.
I am sorry but as somebody whose country actually was liberated by the red army, it's not an oxymoron. Czechoslovakia was betrayed by the western countries, who let Nazi Germany take our land, and in the end invade us. My grandfather and grandmother were children when the war was going on, and their parents were forced to house German soldiers. Our "allies" sold us to Hitler, and it was red army who liberated my country.
I am Romanian. I know the Ottomans made the Tatars commit attrocities during their raids against the Romanian people between the 15th and the 19th century for their benefit but I want peace and prosperity between us. Especially that we have coexisted with some of them in Dobruja. I am very upset about what happened to them in 1944 and I want them go come back to Crimeea and get their Tatar autonomy. Plus that, their flag is insanely aesthetic. Shoutout! 💙❤May God be with you☦. Love from Romania

Why do so many history TH-camrs talk about how careful they have to be not to talk directly about Nazism or cover genocide so as not to "violate" YouTibe's draconian rules and get demonitized, but Simon's channels seem not to have an issue (at least not that he mentions).

"USSR did a good job with erasing Ukrainian history, USSR did a perfect job with erasing Crimia history". Timothy D. Snyder Until last December the English Wikipedia article about Crimea section about culture started with russian poet Pushkin. Like nothing existed before.
A similar topic that could be covered is that of the Lienz Cossacks. Their deportation back to the Soviet Union and subsequent retribution against them was part of the plot of the Bond movie Goldeneye.
What people rarely talk about are the Soviet deportations of Germans from East Prussia to central Germany. The justification from Russians is two war crimes make a right.

Not all Europeans are Russians. There's a difference between TARTAR people and those that live in Middle Eastern countries. In Poland they're respected and live according to their beliefs.

Might be forgotten in the west but not forgotten in Türkiye. We have top notch scientists and historans whom are from Crimean origins like: Muazzez İlmiye Çığ (born 20 June 1914) archaeologist and Assyriologist who specializes in the study of Sumerian civilization; she born in Ottoman Empire and now she is 109 years old. Halil İnalcık (7 September 1916 - 25 July 2016) a highly influential research centered on social and economic approaches to the Ottoman Empire and between 1972 and 1986 he taught Ottoman history at the University of Chicago. İlber Ortaylı (21 May 1947) born in a refugee camp in Bregenz, Austria where his parents, Crimean Tatars, had fled to avoid Joseph Stalin's persecution. His family immigrated to Turkey when he was 2 years old. Ortayli is maternally a descendant of Crimean Tatar Mirza nobility. He is also very famous historian in Türkiye, everyone from age of 7 to 77 very well knows him. And there are many more scientists, historians, academicians, artists, musicians, actors and actresses, business person and politicians; there is a list on the wiki.

It's even more so relevant today too. In November last year Jamala has been placed on Russia's most wanted list and arrested and charged in abstentia for allegedly spreading misinformation about Russia's military in the song's lyrics. She's living in exile abroad because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Russia originally tried to get 1944 removed from Eurovision because it was too political today.

It is not forgotten. I am Kalmyk (Kalmyks are mongolic ethnic group historically based in the south of European Russia) and here in Kalmykia this is taught in schools and most elderly people never forgave the soviet government. There is also the national 'Day of Mourning' on the day when decree on the deportation was issued.
In 1943 Kalmyks, as a whole ethnicity, were accused of treason and collaboration with nazis and scattered all across Siberia. Most of the deported were women, children and elderly people. Then, men were taken from the front, only to be sent to one of gulag's building projects. Don't forget that many of them didn't even know Russian and NKVD scared local people stiff with rumours about cannibals, savages and nazi collaborators. Kalmyks as all other deported peoples could not leave the place of their deportation under threat of 20 years in gulag. And even after Stalin's death, Kalmyks could not return to their homeland until 1956.
Between thirty and fifty percents of all the deported died. Kalmyk language is now under the threat of extinction.
I think what you are saying is true for ethnicities that were particularly mistreated during soviet times, and without a doubt, the chess players of the Union were no exception from these horrific crimes against the population. My grandmother where German and had to leave her historical homeland, but almost everyone she knew got killed so she very rarely talked about it, and I had to learn about this myself. It seems to me thought like Kalmykia is still mistreated I just hope that things become better for all different ethnic groups inside Russia and Ukraine.
There is actually a small group of Kalmyks in the town I grew up in in the US. I went to school with some of them and they were often invited to perform their traditional music for the schools in the area.

It's not forgotten, at least in Crimea it isn't. A lot of the newcomers, who moved to Crimea after WWII (which my family was a part of, my granparents moved there in 70-s) are still pretty unfriendly to say the least towards tatars, who have returned to their land. I myself always felt a bit of a disconnect, couldn't reaaly understand them, until very recently: I couldn't feel the connection with Crimean land like they do, because they have generations after generations of history there, while me is the first generation, who was born there in my family. That's why it was relatively easy for me to leave Crimea behind after 2014, and tatars are staying there despite everything

And from claim itself I can assume it worth noting that russians are way less indigenous to 95% of russia's territory than Crimean tatars to Crimea.

The same thing happend to latvia 🇱🇻 1949 43000 people got deported to Omsk Amur and Tomsk region
Yes, I was in Riga last summer, and this is in one of their museums. Just purging people out of a region, totally unneccessary, really brutal policy by the Stalin regime
The same things were all where russians were... Here in Ukraine it was in many places, and up to 1M of people were deported in other places all over ussr
Same thing was done to Ukrainians in Poland in 1947-1949
Same thing was done to a lot of nations of Nothern Caucasus( some of them were wiped out completely )
tbh, I never thought I would ever see this part of Stalin and Soviet Union history get any wide exposure. Bravo, Into The Shadows !
My great great Polish grandparents knew people killed by and Deported by (they themselves had to escape from Ukraine to Poland) Soviet troops, both during ww2 and after ww2. Stalin is absolutely terrible
I cannot stand the people who defend or support him. In America many of them who feel like this "hate American anti Stalin propaganda" unaware that they are simply falling for another nations propaganda. You can be critical of your own nations actions, but if you use your hate to justify the opposing evil.... You are still blind

They were allowed freedom and independence and Germany was allowed reunification through negotiations like NATO's promise not to expand east and Ukraine's declaration of independence saying it would not become a member of any alliance and continue the same peaceful relationship with Russia.
The Russian economy collapsed after that's a different story. As is the US Empire which is collapsing because they are making the mistake of trying to keep it thru violence.

Horrific atrocities commited by the soviet regime. People who lived in mountains and were difficult to transport were executed in place, (Khaibakh village massacre, over 700 burned alive).
USSR was just as bad, if not worse, than Nazi Germany.
becouse russia hates non-russians@@mile_381
USSR was not worse than Germany, it was equally as bad. They had more time and more different ethnicities they wanted to exterminate.
In Pre-war West Poland the Germans deported hundreds of thousands of Polish people to make room for Germans. They deported them a bit south and also as workers into Germany.
Also the Germans murdered roughly 70k Germans who were in hospitals and insane asylums. So people who had demetia, epilepsy, schizophrenics, or other incurable mental or genetic defects. It was to promote efficiency. Those people didn't use ressources of the Reich any longer and they need the space for the wounded of the war. Brutal, but kind of logical.

For real though, no one ever talks of Ingrians or Karelians either

Empires brutalize those who get in their way. The Russian revolution replaced the Tsarist regime with a new group of gangsters with new flags and colours, much like Putin eventually did after the USSR collapsed.
I hope Simon covers these other deportations in future episodes. No history class I took, up to the college level, covered them.

It baffles me that Stalin isn’t held with the same contempt as Hitler. I think a case could easily be made that Stalin was even worse. Patton was right we should have kept going after defeating Germany and turned on the Soviet Union.
it shouldn't baffle you.
the present contemprt for Hitler was manufactured by the people who admired Stalin, or worked under his control.
my guess is, the main GOAL of this contempt (despite being deserved) is to SHADOW the stalin's role in the WW2 history.
Simple answer is their state won the war, despite the collapse of the USSR it was many years after his death and so for many decades the winner gets to write history. Only after the collapse of the USSR does many details start to emerge and by then decades has passed, much of the horror got consigned to be footnotes in history books. Same as Winston Churchill knowingly and needlessly continue to export food from India as the country faces their worst famine in history, that played a big part for India's demand for independence after WW2. Also part of why British voted him out as Prime Minister after the war despite by all outward appearances he should have easily won the election by popularity and war hero status, British people does not want someone like that to govern them with the war over. But all those details get pushed to the side notes in history.
Turn on the Soviets and keep fighting a war for decades to come? Vast areas of Siberia are still inaccessible today. Imagine trying to get through with heavy machinery back in 1945. A lot of the rail and road infrastructure was built after the war, by German POWs and gulag prisoners.
Long live communism
It depends whom you ask. If you go to Eastern Europe then rest assured that Stalin will be held in the same contempt as Hitler as a bare minimum. Why that isn't the case in Western Europe or the USA is easy: we never had a hot war with Stalin. So the attention and focus shifts to Hitler because either you were (planned to be) occupied by the Nazi's (UK, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Denmark, etc), or you were basically their (direct) collaborator (Italy, Spain). People here just don't have direct experience with the Soviet Union while they do have experience with the nazi occupation and depending to which community you belong the Holocaust.
In the end, history is always local. You care about what your locality has direct experience with because that is what is of influence. Europeans don't care about the regimes from Latin America or what the Japanese did. But the reverse is true too, many Asians have a lot to say about the Japanese occupation or colonial wars but regimes in Latin America are far removed from them, as is the Holocaust and Hitler.

2:05 A tiny note of clarification; when Lithuanians are named as taking part in the uprising, that includes Belarusians. At the time the term Lithuanian encompassed both the Baltic and the Slavic people of the old Grand Dutchy. The separation into Baltic Lithuania and Slavin Belarus came later.
I know the video is not about that at all, but credit, where credit is due. Rebelion against imperial Russia is a worthy cause after all! 😉
@Dreju78. No dude. Russians and Bielorussians are Russians. Their languages were the same until about 700 years ago. Lithuanian isn't even Slavic.

It's so weird to me people still find it cool to wear and fly the hammer and sickle after the millions who were killed by what it stood for.
The hammer and sickle meant something else. It’s like the swastika, it got used by terrible people despite what it stood for.
Most People don’t find it ‘cool’, they just want an end to a system that has just as many atrocities to its name.
Hammer and sickle is worse than the swastika.
The symbolism and meaning of the hammer and sickle is a far cry from the horrific policies enacted by some dictators! It’s an idea, not an endorsement of genocide or even specific policies.
The hammer and sickle themselves are the tools of the industrial workers and the peasant farmers, crossed together they represent solidarity between the two groups- essentially solidarity and cooperation among the poors and normies in order to attain power and better their lives. There’s a lot of little details and distinction between the faction, but the very broad idea is support for working people and the idea that the people who do the work and make the stuff shouldn’t be starving when they are making someone else million dollar bonuses.
Please DO NOT conflate the actions of Stalin and Mao with the philosophy! They are _not_ related!

Well, you could argue the same thing about the swastika right? But it is not what a certain thing was supposed to be, but rather what it became. Hammer and sickle world-wide means genocide, failed economies, oppression and murder.
Even Soviet official census had 50+% of Crimean Tatars in 1920s, but in 1950s there were only 0.2% of them left on a peninsula. And first deportation was decade after Russian Empire occupied Crimea for the first time, when from 85+% of Crimean Tatrs only 50% left living there until Stalin's times.

Ingrian Finns were first deported from 1929. 1.8 million kulaks were deported in 1930-31. 1937 saw the forced transfer of all ethnic Koreans from the Far East.
Then came the Second World War and a bloody spring cleaning of all distrusted minorities from the western regions, the Black Sea and the Caucasus. These included Poles, Volga Germans, Kola Norwegians, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Karelian Finns, Crimean Tatars, Crimean Greeks, Kalmyks, Balkars, Karachays, Meskhetian Turks, Kurds, Hemshins, Karapapaks, Chechens, Ingush, Romanians, Bulgarians, Armenians and Ukrainians. Other deportations included returning Soviet POWs, for whom Stalin reserved a deep suspicion. And let's not forget the dissidents, poets, enemies of the people, and religious minorities. Or those purged from the military and Communist Party officials who had fallen from grace and members of their families.
Stalin had little need for heroes. - Victor Reznov
instead of dying for the glory of the motherland he died for nothing like an animal.
*not the only forgotten genocide of Stalin and the orcs
There's Ingrians for example, or were, rather.
I love stories about the old Soviet Union. Another great job, Simon.
You love stories of GENOCIDE of innocent people man what is wrong with you
Really appreciate your work! Thank you.
One of Stalin's MANY forgotten genocide. And actually, not just Stalin, just the russians in general.
Yes 😢
Love your work! Keep going!😊😊😊😊
I was fortunate to listen to a presentation by a Ukrainian-Russian born in Crimea.
She was the only person in her family that didn't give in to Russian indoctrination.
What surprised me the most was when she stated "80-85% of people that live in Crimea, they do not trace ancestors rooted in Crimea before 1945. Almost everyone was incentivised to move there by the Soviet Union in the second stage of the ethnic cleansing campaign of Crimea after the Tartar genocide".
Stalin also wiped out every last one of the Finnish people of Kola Peninsula area. Not so many know this fact.
Wow
I really love this shows where Simon just reads the script instead of going off on self indulgent tangents between every sentence.
Honest question here: if you don't like him, then why watch his videos?
@@IanPendleton-gh6ox He has excellent writers and occasionally chiming in with an interesting anecdote is fine. The problem is that on some of the channels, for example Casual Criminalist he interrupts the script literally every sentence and in some cases doesn't even finish sentences before going off an a tangent. It gets unbalanced and his comments are often incredibly mundane and repetitive like the coked-up guy at a party who thinks every word out of his mouth is witty and intriguing.
@@IanPendleton-gh6oxHis scripts, subject matter, and delivery are excellent. That is why I watch his videos.
Fair enough. I personally don't mind them, but I also don't watch the videos on that channel all that often, so I can see how that can get annoying.@@sadhucat4476
@@sadhucat4476 I agree with you completely.
Great video as always. Could you please make one about Volhynian slaughter? It's one of darkest moments of WWII that's often overlooked by mainstream.
You mean Volynian tragedy? I can recommend you a plenty of literature how Poles and Ukrainians been manipulated into hating each other by soviet and hitlers regimes.
Excellent presentation!
‘Liberated by the red army’ 😂😂 that’s an oxymoron if ever there was one
yeah exactly like saying hitler liberated the french
Exactly! A shame truth, that most of Russians still "think" the red army was liberating western countries during WWII. These were red invaders!
Always remember. The official soviet history says "liberated from the nazis". It never says anything about liberating the country or peoples to form free states.
I am sorry but as somebody whose country actually was liberated by the red army, it's not an oxymoron. Czechoslovakia was betrayed by the western countries, who let Nazi Germany take our land, and in the end invade us. My grandfather and grandmother were children when the war was going on, and their parents were forced to house German soldiers.
Our "allies" sold us to Hitler, and it was red army who liberated my country.
You are being rescued.
Do not resist.
I am Romanian. I know the Ottomans made the Tatars commit attrocities during their raids against the Romanian people between the 15th and the 19th century for their benefit but I want peace and prosperity between us. Especially that we have coexisted with some of them in Dobruja. I am very upset about what happened to them in 1944 and I want them go come back to Crimeea and get their Tatar autonomy. Plus that, their flag is insanely aesthetic. Shoutout! 💙❤May God be with you☦. Love from Romania

“Stalin had little need for heroes”-Viktor Reznov
Aaah, people. Some things never change 😔
Simon is a superstar!
The tartars just cant catch a break
If you want to see the long term and global effect the echo of all Stalin's Propaganda regarding the Tartar's had look at Western Entertainment and whenever they wanted a creepy, weasel of a bad guy or lackie and how often they resembled the pictures of Ethnic Tartar's during the mid 20th century. You don't even have to go all that far back; Beni in The Mummy was supposed to be a Ukrainian Tartar.
Why do so many history TH-camrs talk about how careful they have to be not to talk directly about Nazism or cover genocide so as not to "violate" YouTibe's draconian rules and get demonitized, but Simon's channels seem not to have an issue (at least not that he mentions). Is it because his TH-cam "empire" is so vast or that he has so many sponsors? (Even with all the sponsors, there are still TH-cam-inserted commercials every few minutes.)
Oh he gets hit from time to time I think his channel into the shadows had so many videos get demonetized and flagged because they went into nasty bits about history
I remember his video on the white rooms, was down for months as he had to edit it and reupload it so it would receive the blessing of the censorship gods of TH-cam
There is an art and educational exemption for content like this and nudity on TH-cam.
@@swamp-yankee If those categories exist, then I wonder why so many of the history channels say they're censoring themselves or are leaving TH-cam for their own websites or other streaming services like Nebula.
Just because you're demonetized doesn't mean ads won't show up at all.
@@fungo6631 wow, that’s dark
Great video, great topic! However the sibilant sounds are very sharp in this video's audio.
"USSR did a good job with erasing Ukrainian history, USSR did a perfect job with erasing Crimia history". Timothy D. Snyder
Until last December the English Wikipedia article about Crimea section about culture started with russian poet Pushkin. Like nothing existed before.
No need to name it Crimia, Crimea or something. Just Qirim is much better, already latin alphabet 😊
@@nepatsiuk Noted. Yeah, it may be good idea. Thanks
A similar topic that could be covered is that of the Lienz Cossacks. Their deportation back to the Soviet Union and subsequent retribution against them was part of the plot of the Bond movie Goldeneye.
Finally a mention of Meskhetian Turks,, feels like no one knows of us
It’s tragic but Uzbeks also rioted and killed Meskhetian Turks.. Look up Fergana Massacre. It’s sad they couldn’t all get along as turkic people
4:32 - "In 1944 The Read Army finally liberated Crimea", are you sure?
More like under new management
What people rarely talk about are the Soviet deportations of Germans from East Prussia to central Germany.
The justification from Russians is two war crimes make a right.
...Amazing video thank you for the history. The young people that believe Communism is so wonderful should be shown this...
Thank u for making this video and especially so for showing Russia's modern crimes against crimean tatars. As a ukrainian who studies crimean tatar language and culture it is really important to me and it is even more important to crimean tatars I know.

The European tactic is to call people who want to defend their ancestral land terrorists, under the pretext of eradicating terrorists, the West gives two choices: become victims of genocide or leave their homeland.the same thing is felt by the Maguindanao ethnic group, the indigenous tribe of Mindanao Island, Philippines, feel, who are increasingly a minority and marginalized among the many residents of Mindanao, the majority of whom are descendants of transmigrants from northern and central philippines.
Not all Europeans are Russians. There's a difference between TARTAR people and those that live in Middle Eastern countries. In Poland they're respected and live according to their beliefs. Poland has Mosques for them.
My only concern is Middle Eastern people that are nothing like TATARS in their religion. Yes, it's Islamic religion, but Tatars are not radical people.
@@NASZYSWT67Yes I am a Tatar Muslim. I'm not from the Middle East. Arab culture is not Islam. We do not need theocracy, we are a secular nation. you are right.The Middle East is already completely pro-Russian-Serbian-Chinese. I don't understand them... They are Muslims... What about Bosnians, Albanians, Tatars, Chechens, Circassians and Uyghurs... It's not fair, IT'S NOT FAIR AT ALL
Thank you for this video, I really wish people would talk about Russians genociding indigenous people all over the empire!
My only comment is that you shouldn't just call Crimean Tatars "tatars" as tatars are a whole another ethnicity. You can use the word qırımlılar if you want a shorter alternative
Many thousands or more of Poles were forced to Siberia after the War and during the Holodomor, thousands and more Ukranians were also deport to Kazakstan!
The editor really had a problem with Simon, using that picture of him for the thumbnail on such a video 😂
It is not forgotten here, in Ukraine. We had the same enemy with tatar people for 300 years
The Tatars weren't the only ones this was done to.
Stalin was a monster.
Might be forgotten in the west but not forgotten in Türkiye. We have top notch scientists and historans whom are from Crimean origins like:
Muazzez İlmiye Çığ (born 20 June 1914) archaeologist and Assyriologist who specializes in the study of Sumerian civilization; she born in Ottoman Empire and now she is 109 years old.
Halil İnalcık (7 September 1916 - 25 July 2016) a highly influential research centered on social and economic approaches to the Ottoman Empire and between 1972 and 1986 he taught Ottoman history at the University of Chicago.
İlber Ortaylı (21 May 1947) born in a refugee camp in Bregenz, Austria where his parents, Crimean Tatars, had fled to avoid Joseph Stalin's persecution. His family immigrated to Turkey when he was 2 years old. Ortayli is maternally a descendant of Crimean Tatar Mirza nobility. He is also very famous historian in Türkiye, everyone from age of 7 to 77 very well knows him.
And there are many more scientists, historians, academicians, artists, musicians, actors and actresses, business person and politicians; there is a list on the wiki.
It would be interesting to check the Ethnic background of many "Russian" elites that led Russification efforts, including the Ancestry of the Tsars and the royal family.
Can we have an Into the Shadows about the British Raj? Or at least the Bengal Famine of 1943?
And one about India and their own attempts at using the terror organization of the Tamil Tiger's for influence ocer Sri Lanka backfiring and causing the assassination of the Indian prime minister
Did the brits really do multiple famine genocides?
When you think you've heard all of Stalin and Beria atrocities, then you come to find out "there's more, there's more".
Did you know that Beria was a pedo?
If not that’s one for the list 😂
I thought the Dekulakization was horrible, I thought the Cannibal island was terrible but this.... This is much wrse than what Stalin did to the Kulaks
Friend of mine went through military training in a tank company and he was taught that tanks can have multiple roles. Direct direct fire gun, infantry support, anti tank gun and yes one of them was "makeshift" SP-Artilley. This was in Finland so should you make fun of us too?
Just remember what the tatars with the mongols did to Hungary, Poland, and Moravia during 1241-1242. Wiping up to 50% of the Hungarian population alone.
