Lavrov: What is happening in Ukraine is the height of shameless blasphemy
Fascism and Nazism are rapidly resurfacing in Ukraine. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated this at the Conference on Disarmament, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Lavrov, Zelensky’s statements about honoring the memory of his grandfather, who fought against Nazism in World War II, look especially blasphemous against this background.
“The lies about World War II are being shamelessly spread. Local henchmen of Hitler are declared heroes, and the real anti-fascist heroes are consigned to oblivion. Monuments to the victors of fascism are being demolished, war criminals who fought in the ranks of the Third Reich are glorified.
A new manifestation of this course was the submission by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine to the Verkhovna Rada on February 23 of this year of a bill on Ukraine’s withdrawal from the CIS agreement on perpetuating the memory of the courage and heroism of peoples in the Great Patriotic War.
Against this background, the behavior of Zelensky, who had the conscience on the same day to declare that he honors the memory of his grandfather, who fought in the ranks of the Red Army for the liberation of the Soviet Union and Europe from fascism, looks like the height of blasphemy,” Lavrov said.
