Lavrov spoke about the blasphemy of Poland
Minister of foreign Affairs of Poland Grzegorz Schetyna has announced that the concentration camp in Auschwitz was liberated by the Ukrainians, because it was done by the forces of the First Ukrainian front.
This blatant disregard for historical precedents, logic and common sense for the sake of political goals aroused objective outrage in the Russian community.
Having made his statement about the nationality of those inhabitants of our planet, which liberated the concentration camp Auschwitz, the head of the Polish foreign Ministry has attracted attention from domestic political and public figures. They are outraged by the words of the Polish policy, which obviously do not correspond to historical precedent and considered disrespectful to the memory of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the liberation of Europe from fascism.
"The statement of the Polish Minister that Auschwitz was liberated by the Ukrainians - I can't even comment on that. Auschwitz was liberated by the Red Army. There were Russians, Ukrainians, Chechens, Georgians, Tatars, and want to play some nationalist feelings in this situation certainly blasphemous and obscene" - quoted by RIA Novosti Sergei Lavrov. The Ministry, which he heads, also gave an explanation about this.
"It is difficult to suspect the official of such values as Grzegorz Schetyna in ignorance. It is well known that Auschwitz was liberated by the troops of the red Army, which fought heroically all nationalities. By the way, until November 1943, the 1st Ukrainian front was called Voronezh, and earlier Bryansk," said the Minister. "The case, apparently, in the other. We think that we should stop to deride situation and in the anti-Russian hysteria reach of disrespect to the memory of those who sacrificed their lives for the liberation of Europe", - said Russian foreign Ministry.
The head of the state Duma Committee on international Affairs Alexei Pushkov also noticed the multi-ethnic liberators of the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp in Auschwitz, as the whole Russian army as a whole. "Ukrainians liberated Europe from the Nazis together with the Russians in the Soviet troops. To isolate them from the red army can only Schetyna" - he wrote on his own Twitter page. "The head of the foreign Ministry of Poland sick "disease of serious acute Russophobia. So ready to forget even that Bandera killed 200 thousand poles," added the MP.
Senator Konstantin Kosachev among other things calls saying, heard from the lips of the Polish Minister, is unacceptable under any circumstances, for it is a direct distortion of historical precedents. "If people don't see the difference between the first Ukrainian front and the nationality of the soldiers who fought the war on this front against fascism, he or was not in school, or he is ready to forget all the things they taught him in school, because of the political situation, which is based on the beliefs of the interests of such countries as Poland, allows you to distort history", - quotes "Interfax".
The Chairman of the party "Women's dialogue, the daughter of the famous Russian girl scouts Wanda Elena Vrublevskaya Semerikova inter alia saw said the attempt to rewrite history, while this was not the first time for the last time. "I'm not just outraged, I insulted heard. We also know about the statement Yatsenyuk, that is, the Soviet Union attacked the Ukraine and Germany. I urge the international community not to go on about some political leaders and not try to rewrite history," quote "Izvestia" Semerikov. Essentially to keep the idea of what happened in those years really and not to change positions in consequence of short-term political gain. "Veterans, gave us the world, every year less and less, my mother died last year, but we are still alive - children, grandchildren, and we are imbued with the spirit of the great Victory of the Russian people in that great and terrible war. We will not allow anyone to rewrite the pages of this tragedy. And will do everything so that the world did not forget the truth," she said.
Similar statements are in General not suitable even for a high school student. In any textbook on the history of Poland written, what troops liberated Auschwitz, besides the Poland. The statement of a politician is not something that does him honor, but simply demonstrates his little level of education, idiocy or demonstrates acute hatred of Russia", - said Russian historian Konstantin Zalessky.
"Among those who liberated in 1945, Auschwitz, of course, were Ukrainians. However the camp gate was opened not by them but by the major of the red army, who was a Jew by nationality. Among those who liberated Auschwitz, there were Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, and followers of many other nationalities of the Soviet Union. But the fact that part of that liberated Auschwitz, belonged to the First Ukrainian front, does not mean that the majority of his soldiers were Ukrainians", - recalled how in reality passed the liberation of Auschwitz and who opened the gates of the concentration camp CEO of the Foundation for Historical memory" Alexander Dyukov.
