MOSCOW, April 21. /ITAR-TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree on rehabilitation of Crimean Tatars and other nationalities of Crimea, who were victims of Stalin-era repressions.
Taking advantage of an opportunity, I would like to inform colleagues that I have signed a decree on rehabilitation of the Crimean Tatars, the Armenian population, Germans, Greeks - all those who suffered from Stalins repressions, Putin said.
Other Crimean ethnic groups repressed by Stalin would also be rehabilitated, he said, listing Armenians, Germans and Greeks among them in a move reaching out to some 250,000 mainly Sunnite Tatars in a modern Crimea home to about 300 Muslim communities today.

Good
In other news America is being savaged by a dictator of unimaginative evil, but many Americans are worried about the Tartars and their sauce.

I suppose they’ll try to influence the tatar tots first.

rehabilitation of Crimean Tatars and other nationalities of Crimea,
who were victims of Stalin-era repressions. Free Healthcare. No wonder Obama isn't making a big stink about his actions, Obama agrees.

No - to do amends to those persecuted under the Communists. Let me guess, non-Putin backers will be donated their homes in Crimea to those who's ancestors were oppressed by a different Russian ruler.

“all those who suffered from Stalins repressions, Putin said.
No communist would say that.

Nikita Kruschev said the same things not long after Stalin died and went to Hell.

Foreign distraction is a kind of remedy for domestic failure. That is why the farce in Ukraine is being pimped so hard as our next war without exit or purpose.

If Obama could, he would love to rehabilitate the USA and possibly liquidate 25 million of us incorrigibles as Bill Ayers wanted to do back in the 1970s.
