The State Duma proposed to ban equating the actions of the USSR and the Third Reich

5

The attempts of a number of countries to denigrate the role of the USSR in World War II and to equate the actions of the Soviet Union with the actions of Nazi Germany prompted Russia to take retaliatory measures.

The head of the State Duma Committee on Culture, Elena Yampolskaya, took the initiative to draft a bill that would prohibit public statements and publications that equate the actions of the leadership of the USSR and Red Army soldiers during the Second World War with the actions of the leadership and military personnel of Nazi Germany.



The TASS agency quoted Yampolskaya as she said at a committee meeting on Tuesday:

You are well aware of the mood in Europe, especially now coming from Poland. With what joy many European deputies support these moods, because it is also beneficial for them to disavow our Victory.

It should be noted that the adoption of such a bill would become an adequate measure for the resolution adopted by the Sejm of Poland, in which responsibility for the outbreak of World War II, along with Nazi Germany, is equally assigned to the Soviet Union.

Members of the State Duma committee supported the need for further discussion of the possible wording of the new bill.

Yampolskaya also noted that the bill will not be aimed at banning research, scientific discussions or historical publications.

    In the light of the outgoing bill, the ban on entry into Russia of persons noted in statements contradicting the official history of World War 2 and the conclusions of the Nuremberg Tribunal will be positive. It is advisable to push both the CSTO countries and Israel into such a decision so that people who distort the history of World War 2 are banned from entering these countries. And to publish a list of such persons in the free media will not hurt.

    The attempts of a number of countries to denigrate the role of the USSR in World War II and to equate the actions of the Soviet Union with the actions of Nazi Germany prompted Russia to take retaliatory measures.

    And if "the role of the USSR in WWII is being denigrated" not by the country, but by its citizens - journalists in the media, comments on all available sites such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.? How to prevent them from entering Russia? There are ideas, how to track the thoughts of billions of people in all languages?
    You can do as the USSR did - not let out its own, not let in theirs, Cheburashkin’s Internet, jammers, and so on. As the classic said, “You are on the right track, comrades!”

      What do you propose, liberalism and absolute permissiveness in the media? Any attempts to distort and falsify historical reality in relation to the Great Patriotic War must be strictly suppressed, otherwise we will simply give an opportunity to mock with impunity the memory of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers who gave their lives for our peaceful future, freedom of speech does not at all mean permissiveness and violation of all morally - ethical standards !!!
