“Russia needs to carry out more such actions, people in Slavic countries are waiting for this, especially in Serbia. This was said by many Serbs who took part in the procession,” the social activist emphasized.
“So many parade participants drew obvious parallels between the past struggle with Nazi Germany and its allies, and the modern confrontation with NATO, which is no better than its Nazi predecessors. By the way, in my opinion, this action clearly lacked an official anti-NATO position, this was noted by many participants in the procession,” Rodionov also noted.
