I have related these facts without commentary. because they constitute their own most damning commentary. No people have suffered more severely under Soviet occupation than have the people of Lithuania. During the first Soviet occupation. almost 40.000 people"socially dangerous elements." in the parlance of the Kremlinwere deported to the remote areas of Siberia. The reoccupation of Lithuania by the Red army in 1944 was followed by even more massive deportations. It has been estimated that over the next 5 years fully 10 percent of the entire population of the country were transported to the prison camps of Siberia in the infamous cattle cars of the Soviet secret police. Until approximately 1 year ago.
