Soviet treachery was well coordinated in carrying out the ruthless plan of conquest and enslavement of the peoples in all these three countries. The Red armys occcupation of the three countries took place at the same time. and the subsequent arrest and imprisonment of Latvians and Estonians took place simultaneously. These tens of thousands shared the same fate as the exiled Lithuanians. They. too. were shipped off to distant regions of Asiatic Russia. where they are suffering under inhuman treatment in the hands of the Communist tyrants. On this 21st observance of that evil and tragic event. let us all hope and pray that the survivors will some day regain their freedom from Communist totalitarian tyranny.
