Republics of Ukraine, the North Caucasus, and Kuban Rada
03/06/2023
In memory of the 105th Anniversary of the Republic of the North Caucasus, some people claiming to represent the North Caucasian political emigration participated in an event organized by Ukraine on 27 May in Kiev. The activities of these people during the event, the statements, and the outcome document signed at the end of the event forced us to refer to our historical memory.
In addition, statements such as "Kuban is Ukraine" or "Psou River is the borderline between Ukraine-Georgia", which are being frequently used by politicians belonging to neighboring peoples in the media recently, performs a disturbing attitude that ignores the indigenous peoples of the North Caucasus.
We would like to share some important documents from our archive reflecting the contradictory diplomatic relations between the North Caucasus Republic and the Kuban Cossacks and the Ukrainian People's Republic between 1919-1921 for the enlightenment of such ignorant politicians and their North Caucasian careerist followers.
