Saw a lot of people call the deportations of Tatars in the USSR a genocide. I know that the Tatars collaborated with the Axis but was it necessary to deport so many of them? Many of them not having directly collaborated with the Axis. Im on board with punishing those who actively collaborated with the Nazis but from what i have heard of, this was unnecessary

Not all Tatars... Tatars are in Tatarstan , Daegistan. The deportation happened to Crimean Tatars, they were all saved from the Nazi genocide and were relocated to Turkmenistan or Tatarstan
