It was the first nation to grant its ethnic minorities governmentsubsidized theaters. libraries. and schools. In 1927 Estonia won an award from the Jewish National Fund in Palestine. Today. thanks to systematic depopulation by the Soviet Union. Estonians are rapidly becoming a minority in their own country. While 88 percent of Estonias population was Estonian in 1939. only 64 percent is Estonian today. Russian immigrants are deliberately transplanted to Estonia by Moscow. Thousands of Estonians have been murdered. thousands more have been deported to Siberia. This is a terrible record to contemplate. This Nation has never recognized the annexation of the Baltic nations. nor should we ever.
