On August 1, 2025, Repatriate Day was celebrated in the Republic of Adygea. The main events took place in Maikop on the “Unity and Harmony” square. An exhibition of handicrafts and a gala concert with the participation of creative groups of the republic were held there. This was reported by the correspondent of “SA”.
The first repatriates with their families, government officials, residents and guests of the republic’s capital came to the celebration. On behalf of the head of Adygea, the Deputy Chairman of the State Council-Khase of the Republic of Adygea, Hero of Russia Eduard Tseev, greeted the audience. He emphasized that Repatriate Day is of great importance not only for those who were born in Adygea, but also for all those who returned to their historical homeland — to their multinational family — more than 20 years ago.
— Then we felt the powerful force of our common historical roots, the power of our unity and cohesion. The Russian Federation and the Republic of Adygea have shown an example of genuine fraternal assistance, a willingness to provide it to all who need it. Such a state position allows us to strengthen our ties with compatriots, mutual respect between peoples, and maintain interethnic and interfaith harmony, Eduard Tseyev noted.
Today, more than two and a half thousand ethnic Circassians (Adyghe) live in Adygea, having returned to their historical homeland from Kosovo, Syria, Jordan, Turkey, Israel, Europe and the USA. All of them make their worthy contribution to the economic, cultural and social life of the republic.
It should be noted that over 3,000 Circassians also returned to the Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria, and dozens of families also returned to the Republic of Karachay-Circassia and the Shapsug region of the Black Sea coast.
