Parliamentarians have concluded a threat to the internal stability of the attempts to falsify history being made both inside our countries and from abroad. They conduct an audit of existing legislation and, while acknowledging it as a whole sufficient, ascertain the need for further improvements in the context of changing situation in the world.
“Practical applicability of the provisions concerning the prohibition of “falsification of history” that could cause a large number of issues which will require clarification and elaboration. First of all, we should be clear on what is meant by the term “falsification”. What is a “history” as the history of mankind, state, nation, a separate nation, and the question is, what is the source of the facts which must be recognized as valid, with the exception of acts of international judicial institutions. This must be done in order to fully separate the actions of politicians, scientists, and other subjects, expressing their own opinions and views on questions of history, from the falsification of history”, say the deputies.
deputies Also pay attention to the necessity of prevention of the offenses having signs of rehabilitation of Nazism and distortion of historical facts.
“So, not less important is to prevent similar violations, including awareness-raising activities aimed at the formation among the population of the state and the individual personality of the representations of the exceptional degree of public danger of Nazism and its manifestations. Also it is necessary to establish restrictions on admission of persons for employment in the public service and elected public office, convicted of crimes in the sphere of distribution and the rehabilitation of Nazism” – offered the deputies.
