Scythia, Huns and Khazars are one people. And to be more precise.

The Huns are 200 Chechen tribes, and the real Huns are the largest tribe called Gunnoi (Ούννοι), but the world will not believe that they are Huns, because today they have no strength. And this is the biggest mistake of today's world politicians, who encourage their genocide, in which half a million people have already died. And tomorrow, the realization that they are Huns, will be too late.

According to ancient books. At the end of time, the Huns will appear at the head of a large army and take revenge on the whole world for their destruction today.

PS:
As Istakhri wrote in the 10th century (quote) - "The language of the Khazars is different than the language of the Turks and the Persians, nor does a tongue of any group of humanity have anything in common with it."
