Introduction

In front of the entrance to the Kremlin in Kazan, there is a statue depicting a figure unraveling wires that bind him. This statue is a tribute to Musa Jalil, a Tatar poet and communist who died in the Moabit prison in Berlin during World War II while being detained by Nazi Germany. Before his death, he left a notebook filled with poems for his Belgian friend. To commemorate his contributions, this statue was erected in May 1 Square. Now, flowers bloom at the foot of the statue, keeping Musa Jalil's legacy alive in people's memories.
