Former Mongolian president calls on Buryats to flee to Mongolia instead of fighting in Ukraine
Mr. Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj, the former president of Mongolia, has called on Buryats, a Russian ethnic minority, to flee to Mongolia to avoid mobilization to war in Ukraine. He recorded his video address to the Buryats in English. “I know that, since the start of this bloody war, ethnic minorities who live in Russia have suffered the most. The Buryat Mongols, the Tuva Mongols, and the Kalmyk Mongols have suffered a lot. They have been used as nothing more than cannon fodder.
