Brief:<\/b><\/p>

Amid Turkey-Russia tensions after the Second World War, one of the ethnic groups of Turks called Ah\u0131ska Turks was forced to migrate by the government of Stalin. Stalin saw these Turks as a security threat. Since the early 1990s, they have continued arriving in Turkey. This paper analyzes how the Ah\u0131ska Turks invoke migration to Turkey as a sense of patriotism and nationalism. The author also examines their criticism for the state’s responses of calling them insufficient nationalists. Throughout their migration process, they have faced more foreignness than the non-Turkish others who are arriving as refugees from different parts of the Arab world and yet are given a privilege of citizenship. There is a longing among this group to be included in the Turkish state. The author introduces the article with a skit where the Arab students are issued residence permits while the Ah\u0131ska family is kept waiting. A report by Hulya Dogan concludes that the image of the ancestral homeland and the contemporary migration regime in Turkey operates so that the territorialized attachment of Ah\u0131ska Turks to Turkey is astonishing. The dreams of Ah\u0131ska Turks to settle down in their ancestral homeland are dashed by the bureaucratic realities of residence permits and work permits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
