“…From 1945 to 1947, 20 percent of German Internees died (Schmidt, 2017, p. 136). Tamás Stark states the number of 600.000 Hungarians who suffered in Soviet camps, of whom more than 40% were civilians, 20% died in transport and one third was killed of forced labor; at least 200.000 of prisoners did not return to Hungary (Stark, 2000). As Ramona Staveckaite-Notari notes, in the course of [1948][1949][1950][1951][1952][1953][1954][1955]372 Lithuanian prisoners and 72 children died, with the largest mortality rates in Primorye Oblast -31.5 per cent, Perm Oblast -26.4 per cent, Magadan Oblast -22.1 per cent, and Kazakhstan -16.5 per cent (Staveckaite-Notari, 2017, p. 210, 218).…”
