I keep being confronted with the population transfer of several ethnic groups to remote areas during Stalin like the Kalmyks, Tatars, Balkars, Chechens, Koreans, etc. While I have found that there were some cases of spying or even desire to collaborate with the invading Axis forces, I don’t think there is a reason to deport all the population? Or is there something else I am missing?
