Episode 37-the Russian Civil War the Musburo: Creating a Muslim Nationalist-Communist Cadre in Turkestan, 1919


Listen Later

Kobozev arrived in Turkestan in 1918 and tried to bring order to the

region. Facing resistance from the Russian Settlers, he turned to the
Muslim population and created different political and governmental
opportunities for them. One such opportunity was the Central Bureau of
Muslim Communist Organizations of Turkestan (the Musburo). However, when
the Muslims start using the language and principles of Communism
against the Bolsheviks and with a horrible famine and ethnic strife
increasing, it becomes clear that a military man is needed to bring
order to the region
