“Polish Foreign Minister Radoslav Sikorsky stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin would try to use May 9 to mislead the world, covering his aggression with the rhetoric of fighting fascism, Radio Liberty correspondent reports. He stressed that modern Russia is an authoritarian state that wages the invading war, depriving the neighboring people of the right to identity. “Putin will try to mislead the world, stating that he is fighting fascism and will be sent to victory in World War II. This is, of course, another lie. Russia is a authoritarian state where there are more political prisoners today than in Brezhnev. It invades neighboring countries and tries to deprive the large neighboring nation of its own identity. These are fascist practices, ”Sikorsky said. Sikorsky stressed that the victory of the anti -Hitler coalition over the Third Reich is the joint heritage of many peoples, including Ukrainians who died and fought in the Red Army. “The Second World War was not only fought by Russians. Several million Ukrainians were killed in World War II, and several million have served in the Red Army, freeing up Poland and taking Berlin. Therefore, the victory of the anti -Hitler coalition over the Third Reich is not the property of Putin, and its use of this victory for discrediting Ukraine is the appropriation of history, ”the Polish Foreign Minister emphasized. Russia systematically uses the cult May 9 as a tool for state propaganda. In particular, the Kremlin promotes the myth of Russia’s exclusive role in the victory over Nazism, pushing for the contribution of other peoples. In this context, Russia extends the narrative about “fight against neonacism” in Ukraine to legitimize war and its own crimes.”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
