145 years since Circassian Genocide has been perpetrated
It's been 100 years as the Circassian-Russian War is finished. The longest ever war Russia turned to be to participate in. It caused catastrophic consequences for our people. More than 90% of the Nation were either annihilated or exiled outside the historical Homeland. Circassia as a country ceased to exist and dissapeared from the political map of the world. Let us remember forever the courage of our ancestors and never forget hundreds of thousands murdered innocent Circassian civilians.
A century and a half past however our people are still in great danger. Within the historical Homeland Circassians divided into 6 adjoining to each other Russian administrative units which is obviously contradict to the international law. More than 80% of the Nation is scattered around 50 different states of the world being actively assimilated.
We call all the Circassians of the world in the name of restoration of our Nation and our Motherland Circassia, in the name of the future of our children and grandchildren to consentrate mutual efforts toward the recognition of Circassian Genocide perpetrated by Russia. This is the only way to resolve all problems our people currently faced to.
