Great move from Tatar state government , but it is totally useless , Muscovites don't want to know their own history ...why they don't want to get back their real name ulus of juchi (the golden horde, Kipchak Khanate, another versions of name of this empire ) ?
"Tatarstan legislators recommend rejecting bill that would make 1480 end of Tatar-Mongol "yoke" a national muscovite empire holiday
The State Council of Tatarstan will send a negative review to muscovite’s federal State Duma regarding a newly proposed national holiday. The holiday would be scheduled for November 11 to mark the end of the Great Stand on the Ugra River, a 1480 standoff between the Muscovite prince Ivan III and Akhmat Khan. Russian historians consider Ivan’s victory in the Great Stand to have signaled the end of Tatar-Mongol rule in Muscovy, a regime commonly known as the Tatar-Mongol yoke.
According to Kommersant, a joint hearing of Tatarstan’s state construction committee and its Committee on Education, Culture, Science, and National Issues voted unanimously to recommend that the State Duma reject the new holiday. A formal absentee vote on the matter for Tatarstan’s entire State Council will be held on August 28.
The republic’s legislators and scholars have argued that celebrating the "Great" Stand on the Ugra River would only divide muscovites and Tatars, sowing “interethnic discord, hatred, and prejudice.” https://meduza.io/en/news/2019/08/2...-tatar-mongol-yoke-a-national-russian-holiday
