Ukrainian Muslims Oppose Russia

I'm in the American Air Force but don't see a reason to intervene in RU/EU affairs.
And you give me morale lesson about palestinians?

Historically land was Tatar dominated, Russians conquered and deported or killed the vast majority of the people. Then resettled Russians among them to change demographics.
That was the NATO history minute

Refat Chubarov and his majlis don`t represent entire Crimean Tatar community, he and his organization was financed by former president Yushchenko.


"Tatars against Euromaidan" (some of them are Salafi , important to note)

In short Tatars supported 1st Maidan , Orange revolution and get nothing in return , prices of food skyrocketed , get no economic or political benefits. They will not be tricked twice.

History of Muslims in Ukraine

The majority of followers of Islam in Ukraine are Crimean Tatars who live in Crimea, a peninsula located on the northern coast of the Black Sea. As of 2012 an estimated 500,000 Muslims lived in Ukraine and about 300,000 of them were Crimean Tatars.

While ethnic Ukrainians are predominantly Orthodox and Uniate Christians, Muslims have lived in the territory that makes up modern Ukraine for centuries. Muslim settlements are concentrated in the country's southern half, particularly in Crimea, although colonies of Lipka Tatars are in other regions such as Volhynia and Podolia.

The Crimean Khanate was established by the Crimean Tatars in the 15th century. These people were formed from the Turkic speaking descendants of both Turkic and non-Turkic peoples who had settled in Eastern Europe as early as the 7th century.

The Khanate soon lost its sovereignty and fell under the influence of the Ottoman Empire and was controlled by the local tributary rulers with a significant degree of autonomy. From the 15th century to the 18th century, Crimean Tatars frequently raided Eastern Slavic lands to capture their inhabitants, enslaving an estimated three million people, predominantly Ukrainians. The influence of Russia in the area, initially small, was gaining momentum, and in the late 18th century, after the series of Russo-Turkish Wars, the territory was annexed by the Russian Empire.

The Crimean Tatars were Sunnis, and the mufti was regarded as the highest religious figure. All communities were led by and represented before others by local imams.

The Crimean Khanate had Bakhchysarai as its capital. In the 18th century, when it was conquered by Russia, at least 18 mosques were in the capital along with several madrassas. The Russian Empire began persecuting the Muslim population, and nearly 160,000 Tatars were forced to leave Crimea.

Muslims who stayed faced conflicts in ideology among those who adhered to a conservative form of religion, the moderates, and those who subscribed to liberal and Western ideology.

Religion in Ukraine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Religion in Ukraine (2006)[1]

Non religious, or not belonging to any church (62.5%)
Eastern Orthodoxy (26.8%)
Catholicism (5.9%)
Protestantism (0.9%)
Other religions (3.9%)
Historically, the territories of the present-day Ukraine were inhabited by pagan tribes, butByzantine rite Christianity was introduced by the turn of the first millennium. It was imagined by later writers who sought to put Kyivan Christianity on the same level of primacy as Byzantine Christianity that Apostle Andrew himself had visited the site where the city of Kyiv would be later built.

However it was only by the 10th century that the emerging state, the Kyivan Rus' became influenced by the Byzantine Empire, the first known conversion was by the Princess Saint Olgawho came to Constantinople in 945 or 957. Several years later, her grandson, Knyaz Vladimirbaptised his people in the Dnieper River. This began a long history of the dominance of the Eastern Orthodoxy in Ruthenia that later was to influence Russia and Ukraine.

Judaism was present on Ukrainian lands for approximately 2000 years when Jewish traders appeared in Greek colonies. At the same time the neighbouring Khazar Khaganate was influenced by Judaism. Since the 13th century the Jewish presence in Ukraine increased significantly. Later on in Ukraine was established new teaching of Judaism - Hasidism.

Islam was brought to Ukraine with the Golden Horde and the Ottoman Empire. Crimean Tatarsaccepted Islam by being a part of the Golden Horde and later the vassals of Ottoman Empire.

More recently, during the time of the Soviet Union, atheism was officially promoted by the government and taught in schools, while religious believers were persecuted. As a result, only a small fraction of people remained official church goers in that period, and the number of non-believers increased.

One of the leaders of the Crimean Tatars made a statement that Chubarov and Majlis represents not the interests of the Crimean Tatar people, and only their own and their masters.

Tatars are a sauce, that's why they are so bitter. Please ignore them they do not know what is in their best interest.
