  • Sarvarim Samarkand, fido bolay sen uchun jonim Samarqand!

  • Nasiba Abdullayeva (maiden surname Yarmuhammedova) is Samarkandian Iranian. There are many old diasporas, among them Iranian.

  • Nevertheless, during the existence of the Turkistan Republic, in its various forms, the economic and cultural interests of the Tajiks were infringed upon. The Turkistan papers openly advocated the killing of Tajiks and the forcing of the Tajiks to accept Uzbek identity.

  • Before the national-administrative divisions, Tajiki had served as the official language of successive dynasties and governments in Central Asia.
