Soviet Union's Immigration Strategy

At the end of World War II, 1944, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union forcibly immigrated hundreds of thousands of Crimean Tatars who had lived here for generations to Central Asia on the grounds of cooperation between Crimean Tatars and Germany. 192 1 the socialist autonomous Republic of Crimea was also renamed Crimea.

During the forced migration or collective exile in Crimea, hundreds of thousands of Tatars were displaced. It is said that during the exile alone, more than 46% Tatars died of illness, hunger or other reasons. It can be said that the forced migration of 1944 is a history of blood and tears for the Tatars.

As a result of this forced migration by the Soviet Union, Tatars, who used to be the majority and the mainstream residents of Crimea, have become a minority in Crimea today. The population composition of Crimea has become 60% Russian, 24% Ukrainian, and Tatars are almost negligible in Crimea.

Some time ago, Crimea returned to Russia from Ukraine. What happened in Crimea? Benefit? Forced to move by the Soviet government. Because it is precisely because of the residents of Crimea that the Russians have an absolute advantage that such activities can finally break out.

Why are a large number of Tatars who once lived in Crimea forced into exile?

In fact, at the end of World War II, especially after the Soviet Union turned defeat into victory in the Soviet-German battlefield and gained the battlefield advantage, not only Crimean Tatars, but also many ethnic minorities in the Soviet Union began to go into exile on a large scale. For example, Chechens living in Chechnya and Ingushetia in Ingushetia are all targets of mass exile.

Map of the Soviet Union These ethnic minorities were forced to leave their homes and move thousands of miles away, even far away from Wan Li, because of an order of the Soviet government. This order was naturally given by Joseph, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union. Stalin signed it.

Stalin signed this order because Stalin and the Soviet government believed that many Tatars betrayed their motherland during the Soviet Great Patriotic War. Instead of defending the Soviet Union, they stood on the side of the enemy, Germany, and joined the German Volunteers to fight against the Red Army. In other words, the Soviet Union believed that the Tatars were pawned while the Soviet Union was defending the country? Traitor? Become a traitor to the Soviet Union.

As a result, the Soviet Union decided to forcibly move all Tatars out of Crimea, an area with superior environment, rich resources and extremely important strategic position. The Soviet Union believed that the Tatars. No, right? They lived in Crimea and moved permanently to Uzbekistan in Central Asia.

Molotov, then the foreign minister of the Soviet Union, also recalled that during the war, they (the Soviet government) received reports of large-scale rebellion by ethnic minorities. If such a thing really happens in the brilliant Soviet-German battlefield, it is naturally a matter of life and death for the Soviet Union. So the Soviet Union decided to expel a large number of ethnic minorities living in the Caucasus, Crimea and other regions and not sell them to the Soviet Union? Opportunity? .

Then, during the period of defending the country and defending the country, did a large number of Tatars really join the Nazi army and fight against the Soviet Union? Not all the accusations against the Soviet Union have wronged the Tatars. During the Soviet-German battlefield, Germany did promise non-Russians to help them gain independence. So these ethnic minorities, including Tatars, have a good impression on the Germans, and some people did join the Soviet Union established by the Germans? Puppet army? .

However, this kind of behavior is not the national behavior of Tatars, but the choice of some people. In fact, during the Soviet-German War, at least 20,000 Crimean male Tatars joined the Soviet Red Army and fought bloody battles with the Germans on the battlefield. Obviously, it is obviously unreasonable to expel the Soviet Union indiscriminately, rudely and even inhumanely.

What's more, the Soviet army expelled the Tatars in 1944. At this time, in the Soviet-German battlefield, the Soviet Union has achieved a comprehensive strategic advantage, and the Soviet government has both time and energy to identify and separate traitors, instead of forcibly moving the whole nation as traitors.

Behind the forced relocation of Tatars by the Soviet Union, it is not to take this opportunity to completely russize Crimea. Obviously, this behavior of the Soviet Union also achieved their expected purpose.

At the same time, the Tatars who once established a powerful Crimean khanate and fought with Russia for hundreds of years still have deep feuds with the Russians. The two sides can even call it a feud. As early as the15th century, after the disintegration of the Golden Account Khanate, the Crimean Khanate established by the descendants of Genghis Khan's eldest son Shu Chi became the most powerful country in South Russia.

The cavalry of the Crimean khanate inherited the nomadic characteristics of Mongolia and frequently invaded Russia, Ukraine and other regions. For example, in 1572, the Crimean khanate besieged Moscow, the Russian capital, and captured more than 50,000 people from Russia/kloc-0 as slaves.

Capturing Russians as slaves has also become the main source of income for the Crimean Khanate. According to statistics, during the more than 200 years of the existence of the Crimean Khanate, Tatars sold millions of Russian slaves. Such a history, in the eyes of Russians, is naturally a deep hatred. The feud between the two sides may not be one of the reasons why the Soviet Union finally expelled the Tatars.
