The Head of the Russian NGO Tajik Labor Migrants, Karamat Sharipov, after his return from Tajikistan to Moscow on Saturday, sent an official letter to the Ambassador of Tajikistan in Russia, Imamiddin Sattari.
According to the official website of Tajik Labor Migrants NGO, the letter calls on “finding ways to resolve the looming conflict that could result in many thousands of Tajik youth in a protesting rally in Moscow.”
The message says: “It is impossible not to take into account the fact that due to the youth being connected to the Internet, the young Tajiks are not the passive, but the active society, who have goals and determination to implement their plans.”
The need to “work out in detail all the points of youth’s requirements, who are advocating for the revival of Tajikistan, and to organize meetings in places of their mass location,” is noted in the letter.
Tajik Labor Migrants NGO message notes that Tajik authorities in their external and internal policy need to take into account the opinion of the Tajik youth, whose number in Russia reaches 2 million.
Karamat Sharipov also calls on the society and the authorities of Tajikistan to stop discrediting the Qoranic Islam, which for centuries has been the holy religion of forefathers. The letter says: “Being in Tajikistan, he daily saw on Tajik television stories exposing immoral conduct of the mullahs. Even if these glaring facts are true, they have no relation to the religious Islamic tradition. However, through the annoying public display of the individual mullahs’ behavior, the unworthy enemies of the Qoranic Islam work to ensure that the youth are recruited by extremist organizations. The proof is the fact that our fellow compatriots end up in such hot spots, as Syria and Iraq, where the forces hostile to the Qoranic Islam have unleashed a war of Muslims against Muslims.
