Rebirth
of Balkars
29.03.2003
Rebirth Day of Balkars
is commemorated yesterday in Kabardino-Balkaria in the Russian Federation.
President of Kabardino-Balkaria Valery Kokov had decreed the 28th of March
as The Day of Rebirth of Balkar Nation. The Balkar Nation was exiled from
Caucasus during the period of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin. Memories
of 8 March 1944 exile is commemorated in The Republic since the year 1994.
Supreme Soviet's 1957 decision to re-establish The Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria
has ended 13 years of exile in Siberia and Kazakstan.
