Mustafa Cemilev -- People’s Deputy of Ukraine, first Chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar People -- has turned 70.

 

Since he was just a young man, this courageous person has dedicated his life, full of strife and worry, to the restoration of the rights of the deported Crimean Tatar people. A legendary human rights activist, the leader of the Crimean Tatars continues his fight to restore the rights of illegally deported peoples and to give those who have survived the tragedy of a deportation legal protection.

 

The Euro-Asian Jewish Congress congratulates Mustafa-aga, our comrade-in-arms for human rights, on his anniversary. We wish him good health and many years of life to come - a worthy life for a worthy man.
