Muniver Umerova, 75, a Crimean Tatar, was 6-years-old when she like many other Tatars were forced out of Crimea and into exile in Uzbekistan by Joseph Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union.  It wasn't until 1990 that she finally returned to her homeland of Crimea.  Speaking of the current situation in Crimea, Umerova says, "I grieve very much.  I'm very saddened by this because with these Russians we didn't have any childhood, and now I can't finish my days in peace."
