I’ve been arguing with some people over this whole Ukraine-Russia shit and somebody mentioned this.

What was the deal with this? Why did the USSR do this? What are the western history books not telling me here?

Also bonus question, what was the deal with the entire resettlement program? Why was it needed?

It was always bad, circlejerking is irrelevant.

Plus all countries at that period don’t have a lot of moral ground to stand on - so it was wrong, it shouldn’t be done again seems like an easy lesson, instead of arguing that it was different somehow
