The Real Story about how Crimea's Indigenous Peoples are affected by this conflict

The Real Story about how Crimea's Indigenous Peoples are affected by this conflict
Dr. Nadir Bekir, my Crimean Tatar dear brother, here at the United Nations

The US is not the only country that manipulates the information released by the press. MANY, MANY countries do it. Take for example, Ukraine and Russia, ....countries that deny Indigenous Peoples Rights, and do not even like to use the term "Indigenous Peoples", rather "national minorities", and are doing what they can to destroy indigenous languages, even if on paper it sounds like they protect them, and since we all know, we live in a society where what's on paper is what "counts".....even with all that, These Countries who have their eye in Crimea, all of a sudden remember the Crimean Tatars, for example, (The largest group of IP's in Ukraine), and in their news casts are saying how they (crimean Tatars) will pick up arms to defend them...(Ukraine says that, the other side, Russia, is also using this methodology, well knowing that Crimea has 60% russian population.)

The funny thing is Crimean Tatars are not siding with either, for they have endured much at the hands of both, including being massacred. International Law (again, something that was written on paper), addresses Free, Prior, Informed Consent...in a nutshell, if an action is going to impact an IP's, they MUST HAVE FPIC, period, there is no way around it! ...again...on paper!

As I have indicated before, our brothers and sisters in many places of the world, have had to endure the "extinction myths", and the non-recognition of IP's by their governments, and the many speeches by politicians and academics, that love to create fear speaking about divisions of peoples, if they allow for "these other ones" to claim and exercise their inherent right to self-determination, which in reality, as much as some will like to mock it, is a fundamental, basic human right according to International Law....

As an Advocate of Indigenous, Human and Environmental Rights, I am compelled to inform you what our brothers and sisters are living in Crimea. Of course my brother and sister who as I, advocate for these same rights at the United Nations, and other International Platforms, are in a place of much instability with opposing forces who only placed IP's at great risk.

Do NOT buy for a second what statements you watch in the networks which at some time, had some credibility, but who we now know, are mere puppets of the TRUE RULERS of this country...remember, the members of the Elite Club called "We the People"...(that does not mean YOU, for you are not part of the club!)

By letting the world know that Crimean IP's ARE NOT siding with either force, and presenting that it is a scare tactic, we may help our brothers and sisters. If you have a contact that is interested in this subject, and is legit, let me know. In the meantime, feel free to share this post, as the more people know, the better!
