the Disinformation campaign unleashed in a number of countries, including in the United States with the purpose to belittle the role of the Soviet Union in the victory over Nazism, is unacceptable, and the Russian side should not be silent in response. This opinion was expressed by Russia’s Ambassador to the U.S. Anatoly Antonov.
“I don’t even know how people can say such blasphemous words, knowing that the Soviet people lost 27 million people”, – TASS quoted the diplomat. Antonov is convinced that it is important to attempt to convey to ordinary Americans to ordinary people in Europe and on the Ground that it was the Soviet soldiers who liberated and defended the independence of Europe and the Soviet Union.
“no One will ever make us forget those times and no one will ever be able to shake our conviction that the main thing – to be together in the fight against new challenges and threats, today it is more important than ever”, – said Antonov.
