Photo: Erik Prozes / Postimees Read the summary The most tragic page in the history of our people is undoubtedly the March deportation of 1949, which was aimed at breaking the resistance of the people and, in particular, at forcing the farms to join the kolkhozes. I remember the first reminiscence of this in 1989, when crowds gathered at railway stations.
