In 1914, Vladimir Lenin called Russia тюрьма народов, "prison of nations". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prison_of_peoples https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_Russia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_transfer_in_the_Soviet_Union https://www.justsecurity.org/81789/russias-eliminationist-rhetoric-against-ukraine-a-collection/ https://press.un.org/en/2022/ga12407.doc.htm https://soviethistory.msu.edu/1943-2/deportation-of-minorities/ https://www.britannica.com/place/Baltic-states/Soviet-republics https://dash.harvard.edu/bitstream/handle/1/3229636/Martin%201998.pdf https://scholarworks.uvm.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1010&context=castheses https://apnews.com/article/ukraine-russia-war-crimes-un-human-rights-c52676801b588a95a8410bc71b62d568 https://newlinesinstitute.org/rules-based-international-order/genocide/the-russian-federations-escalating-commission-of-genocide-in-ukraine-a-legal-analysis/
