Debunked: Crimea Is Indigenous russian Land
Episode Summary
russian propaganda spreads the false narrative that Crimea has belonged to russia for most of its existence. Their propaganda asserts its indigenous people, the Qırımtatarlar — more commonly known as the Qirimli — have always been a small part of the Crimean population and have lived with ethnic russians.
The truth is much more grim: russia's attempted to wipe them off the map over the past three centuries. Due to their resilience, the Qırımtatarlar are not only alive, but are fighting for their homeland both on the peninsula and along the larger front as part of the Ukrainian Army.
Yulia and Alim Aliev, Deputy Director General of the Institute of Ukraine, member of PEN Ukraine and founder of the Crimean Fig literary project, discuss one of the most disputed peninsulas in the world — Qirim (or Krym in Ukrainian). Whom does it really belong to? Was it really originally russian land? What happened there between 1918 and 2014, when it became known worldwide (again) after the russian occupation?
