The State Duma adopted a law banning the identification of the actions of the USSR and Nazi Germany
The State Duma of the Russian Federation adopted today in the final third reading a law prohibiting the public equation of the goals and actions of the leadership of the USSR with the goals and actions of the leadership of Nazi Germany during the Second World War.
For the second reading, it was proposed to extend the ban on equalizing the roles of the USSR and Nazi Germany during the Second World War to information posted on the Internet, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The West has no right to stand next to us when it comes to defeating Nazism. With the exception of the most decent, most courageous citizens of Europe who resisted. Europe worked three shifts for Hitler, often fought on Hitler’s side, and generally lived under Hitler, pretending that nothing was happening. They are the heirs of their shame, and we are the heirs of our victory. Let everyone stay to their own. We walked to our victory alone, and we keep the memory of it alone,” said Elena Yampolskaya, a deputy from United Russia.
Communist Alexei Kornienko believes that it is also necessary to legally prohibit equating the USSR with militaristic Japan.
“I would also like the law to pay attention to the illegal actions of the Vlasovites and other collaborators who betrayed the Soviet people during the Great Patriotic War and do not deserve any respect,” Kornienko said.
