Summary/Abstract: Campaigns to remove the unwanted population from certain territories due to political strategies, ideological considerations or ethnic discrimination have taken place in history in order to establish homogeneous populations in geographical areas occupied by citizens of several ethnicities. Ethnic cleansing was a method widely used by totalitarian regimes to eliminate citizens who might have opposed regime ideology. The paper aims to provide a series of examples from the Eastern European region, where Russia's communist ideology and propaganda have influenced the regimes of neighboring states that have adopted the same doctrine.
