Sarangov David Vladimirovich, Bovaev Nikolai Borisovich

Kalmyk emigrants, being as a result of the defeat of the White Movement in the Civil war abroad, continued to feel part of the Kalmyk people. They were actively engaged in activities in all spheres of civil life. One of the topics that occupied the Kalmyks in exile, it is a question of national unification. On this problem worked such scientific and cultural figures as D. E. Khara-Davan and S. B. Bayanov, B. B. Kurlanov and S. B. Balyk. We can say that this was one of the main topics that occupied the main minds of the Kalmyk emigration.
