Ukraine needs a representative on issues of enslaved nations of the Russian Federation

Pavlo Podobed is a political scientist, historian, and expert on enslaved nations of the Russian Federation. He was born in the Kherson region. Interest in centrifugal movements in Russia appeared because of the story of my native grandmother, a Kazan Tatar woman. Podobed has been studying the problems of the indigenous people of Russia since 2008. He works as an analyst at the Prometheus Security Environment Research Center. Since 2014, he has also been an employee of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance, where he became a co-author of the National Pantheon of Heroes of Ukraine project. His charitable foundation “Heroika” has been searching for and restoring the graves of figures of the Ukrainian Nation’s Republic all over the world for many years.
