GREAT TURAN EMISSARIES EXPELLED FROM RUSSIA
A group of Turkish citizens, namely the directors and co-founders as well as employees of a number of Bashkirian educational institutions, has been expelled from Russia. These educational institutions were opened yet in 1992 on the initiative of "Serkhat" Turkish firm. As reported by "Yerkramas", the newspaper issued by the Armenians of southern Russia, the foreign teachers were bringing up pro-Turkish inclined youth who in future would have to lobby the interests of Turkey in the Bashkirian power bodies and government. Over 1000 teenagers studied in the lyceums. Due to the Russian legislation the actions of such character are classified as the interference in the internal affairs. Moreover, "Serkhat" was found out to be a structural sub-unit of Nurjyular religious-nationalist movement, which is connected with Grey Wolves terrorist organization propagandizing the idea of creation of Great Turan, a state with the frontiers stretching from Balkans to Siberia.
