65 years passed since the first mass deportation of Moldovan by the soviet communist regime

There will be 65 years, on June 13, since Moldovans have suffered the first mass deportation organized by the communist regime. On the occasion of the anniversary, on June 14, at 10:00 AM, in the square of the Railways Station, at the stone that replaces for several years the monument of the communism’s victims, a commemoration meeting will take place. The witnesses of those events state that thousands of families of mayors, priests, doctors and simple peasants passed through this ordeal. Children, pregnant women, old persons, were thrown into wagons and sent to Siberia and Kazakhstan. The majority of those affected of the first deportation wave did not ever return to their homeland, leaving their ash in foreign lands. The wave of repressions in soviet Moldova continued with other thousands of innocent persons who were arrested, murdered or deported to Siberia and Northern Kazakhstan, and beyond the Polar Circle as well, where many of them have died. The record of the USSR Supreme Soviet Session from August 2, 1940 presented a number of 3.200.000 inhabitants in Basarbia. The same official statistics showed in 1950 a number of 2.290.000 persons. In this way, during 10 years the population of Moldova was decimated by about 971.000 persons, or nearly 1/3 of the population. The exact number of all victims from Basarabia, Bucovina, and Hertsa region is not known for sure, but it is estimated at about 1.500.000, approximately a half of the Romanian population of these regions. The communists “pursued” their victims even in Romania were thousands of Basarabian flee. Exactly after 10 years, since the events from June 1941, on June 18, 1951, the Romanian Security arrested and deported to Baragan, another thousands of persons from the mentioned-above regions. According to official reports, in the middle of the night between June 12 and 13, 1941, 13.470 families, amounting to 22.648 persons, of whom about two thirds children and women were arrested and sent to gulags. Several historians named these events as “a real Holocaust for Romanians, organized by the soviet communist regime”.
