Sukhan Babayev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sukhan Babayev (born 1910) served as the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Turkmenistan from October 1951 until December 1958.[1]

Babayev and several political allies were fired after they advocated greater ethnic Turkmen representation in the Soviet government.[2]
