A protest has been held in Ordzhonikidze Square, in Yakutsk, Russia, where women came out to demand an "end to the genocide" and to return men home from the war against Ukraine
...a large number of people attended [the protest], many of them coming with their families, mostly women, with grandmothers and daughters.

It's population are yakuts - a TurkiC people
and their language is from a branch of Turkic quite different from Oghuz Turkish or Uyghur
Why do you misleadingly post this as “PRAVDA” and not the honest UNRAINSKA PRAVDA?
There was a on article byba former CIA spook who said the US is going to use mobilization to rally minorities against the Russian government. This tread is about such half-assed attempt, which is a twitter-induced flash mob of three people.
The article was in Politico.
the TurkISH people are genetically far closer to Greeks, Armenians and Iranians than they are to the TurkiC peoples (by some studies only about 5% of their genes are East Asian).
The oldest known Turkic inscription–thus, our first known use of the Turkic language–comes from the Orkhon Valley, which is located smack dab in the middle of Mongolia -- some linguists propose that the Mongolian family and the Turkic family might be related to each other within a broader “Altaic” language family, which makes plenty of geographic sense, but might not make true linguistic sense.
This (difference between genetics and languages) isn't unusual - the English, despite speaking a “Germanic” language, only about 10% German by ancestry (more or less;)
But back to the Turks
We can see the "bleed" of different ethnicities merging.
An independent Yakutia with other Turkic states could help Mongolia out of its land-locked state
Interesting. They almost look Chinese! I wonder how closely related say, Turks and Chinese are.
Oh, TurkiC vs. TurkISH.
Oh, give a rest, Ivan..
well it depends on which “Chinese”.
The northern Chinese were conquered by the Xianbei, Xiongnu, through to the Mongols and have Turkic and Mongol admixture - I believe up to 25%
But the southern Chinese have lesser and more admixture from Miao, Vietnamese, Tai, etc. peoples.
Linguistically they are not related at all - the Turkic languages are a completely different family from the Sinitic languages.
historically they have touch points
Winter is coming. Santa is going to bring BODYBAGS!
I think I would have enjoyed Risk more if we could have said Yakutia to Irkutia, instead of Yakutsk to Irkutsk.
About 5,000 miles from Moscow.
Putin cannot hear them and is not bothered by the anguished cries of the mothers.
Making this a target for Putin’s press gangs.
Moscow/ St Petersburg; not so much.
What is the primary language spoken by these young men?
Guessing that all the schools are Russian all the time but when having to respond quickly and correctly, the primary language works best; over the radio with lots of background noise...
—”The article was in Politico.”
OH NO!!!
Not the dreaded politico???
You can catch bugs crawling inside your screen from a site like that one.
Yakutia was an independent republic before the Bolsheviks blew in
Aztlan was an independent republic before the Yanqui Imperialists blew in
Just posting this like a bot captcha, so see if you are a human or just a programmed response.
See 15 for Bot Captcha verification.

Nope - Aztlan was never an independent republic
Take your anti-Americanism with you to Moscow
