Congratulations to Circassians

I would like to take a moment to warmly congratulate the brotherly Circassian nation on the recognition of the Circassian genocide by the Ukrainian Rada, especially as more than a decade has passed since Georgian recognition of it. Erudite Veteran (talk) 19:55, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
