Tag #152092 - Interview #103542 (Elena Orlikova)

There were rumors in the city that the authorities were going to move Jewish people very far away, probably to Siberia or the Far East12. We still remembered what Stalin did to the Chechen13, Crimean Tatars and other people and realized that there had to be truth behind those rumors. So I asked my Russian friend Lida Govseyeva to take care of Ludochka if something happened to us. That was how much we were afraid. We believed that anything might happen to us.
