From the series Deportatsiya painted by Rustem Eminov in honour of the Crimean Tatars deported by Stalin’s communist government from Eastern Europe to Central Asia

In 1944 the Crimean Tatars were deported by Stalinist regime by the suggestion of the head of the communist secret police Lavrentiy Beria. More than a hundred thousand Tatars were deported to Uzbekistan, alongside certain minorities in the region such as Crimean Germans, Greeks, Bulgarians, and Armenians. It is reported that at least 20% of the Crimean Tatar population tied in the first two years due to exposure. 

The Soviets had accused the Crimean Tatars and others of collaborating with the Nazis during the war, something that has been greatly contested by them. Although like in many other regions controlled by the Nazis, there is proof of collaboration by individual Crimean Tatars, however by no means the majority.

The slow return of the Crimean Tatars to their homeland began in 1967 immediately after the Soviet Union removed the accusation of complicity with the Nazis. After the fall of Communism and the independence of Ukraine, around 150,000 returning Crimean Tatars were granted citizenship automatically under Ukraine's Citizenship Law of 1991. However, they faced issues with bureaucracy and hostility among many individuals of the Russian Crimean population, who maintained that they had aided Nazis in ethnically cleansing ethnic Russians. Most of their villages had been deserted or occupied by new residents, and the Ukrainian state did little in terms of financially accommodating their resettlement. 

Since the Russian annexation of Crimea, the Crimean Tatars have been one of the most vocal dissidents of the Russian occupation, and have claimed to be highly persecuted by Russian officials alongside ethnic Ukrainians.
