    Question Why do some say the Saami are the only Indigenous Europeans?

    When reading articles about Sami people I found many stated something similar to "Sami are the only indigenous people in Europe." This really makes no sense at all I personally believe they could be argued as some of the least Indigenous Europeans. Here are some articles that claim that. In my opinion it is a pretty ridiculous statement.

    https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/node/7082

    "The Sámi people in northernmost Scandinavia is the only indigenous peoples in the European Union."

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...-the-reindeer/

    "Known as Europe’s only indigenous people"

    https://www.euronews.com/2019/08/09/...ronews-answers

    "The vast majority of Europe's indigenous people can be found in the Arctic region."

    https://www.equaltimes.org/the-eu-s-...n#.X8Z4ec1KhPY

    "The EU’s last indigenous peoples fight for self-determination and land rights"

    Because these marxists want to legitimise migration to show whites are "not" natives in Europe so they have no right to oppose migration. Teere are tons of fake "scientific" sites, for example black vikings, etc.

    Saying that Swedes are an indigenous people of Europe is different from saying that Swedes are indigenous Europeans.

    The Japanese aren't called an indigenous people either.

    Two of the articles say that Saami are the EU's last indigenous peoples but not that they're Europe's last indigenous peoples.

    Also the article by Scientific American was probably written by Americans, and they are a people who are bad at geography, so maybe they think that European Russia is not part of Europe.
