Currently. the Estonian people suffer under the oppressive domination of the Soviet Union. Since the Soviet annexation of Estonia in World War II. the people of that Baltic republic have been subjected to extreme and heinous persecution. The Soviet annexation not only terminated Estonias independence. but led to massive slaughter and deportations. In 1941. 60.000 Estonians. more than 5 percent of the entire population. were either killed or sent to Soviet concentration camps. In 1949. 80.000 Estonians were deported to Siberia to work on government owned. collective farms. In all. a total of 350.000 people were reportedly lost between 1939 and 1949. representing onethird of Estonias population. Unfortunately.
