- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationI wanted to start a podcast ages ago. But it takes a village (literally!) to make one. YurtJurt is a dream come true project that unites the coolest voices from Northern & Central Asia to speak up of our decolonial journey. Please share! We are hitting a milestone with this first season ❤️

- Our former and current Board Members Assel Tutumlu and Tereza Hendl were on the panel Looking Back, Moving Forward: Interdisciplinary Decolonial Dialogues on Central Asia and Eastern Europe at the CEEShub Conference. There will soon be a special forum published from these conversations of interest
- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationI remember the celebration of this ⬇️ and had a tiny hope three years ago that things might get better. But no. The obsession with this term is still there across Western media.
- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationJust unbelievable how long we have been explaining this. We are not “former soviet” similarly to why we don’t say now former Nazi Germany or former Vichy France. In many countries it was a military occupation by a Soviet regime. You are erasing pre-occupation history. Erasing diversity.

- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationA view on the US from Greenland: “We do not want to be rich like Americans. Look how greedy they are, even trying to invade their friends. We would not sell ourselves. We know what happened to Indigenous people in Alaska and Native Americans. Their land was taken, and they were not treated well.”
- Greenlandic politician Tillie Martinussen on the sovereignty of Greenlanders, the greed in the US, and how they view their land. Also comments on how the US treated Natives, as a very good reason to not want to be a part of the US. youtu.be/xs53IESxz80?...

- Reposted by The RUTA Association1. Almost every night, I hear explosions from Russian missiles and drones in Kyiv. Although the Russians practise double strikes, rescuers and electricians instantly appear at the sites of damaged civilian infrastructure. 1/5
- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationI associate this winter with three things: cold, darkness, and gratitude. I am not mentioning Russian missiles and drones because they strike civil infrastructure all year round. That is why we in Kyiv are sitting at minus -17 degrees without heating, electricity, water, or communication. 1/1

- Reposted by The RUTA AssociationThe Russians are carrying out the largest colonization campaign of our time. Since the illegal annexation of Crimea, more than one million Russians have moved there,while the indigenous population is being repressed and persecuted. Russian soldiers are offered land in exchange for killing Ukrainians

- Reposted by The RUTA Association"We'll invade you to protect and liberate you" is what Pu said to Ukr. Ru often insists it's the only guarantor of Ukrainian sovereignty. Now Trump is walking in Pu's footsteps by saying the only way Greenland can be sovereign/protected is by being taken over by the US. Surreal Ru-US convergence!
