“It so happened that the victory of the forces of light over darkness and the demonic spirit, convicted of the ideology of Nazism, did not become final today,” TASS quoted Kartapolova as saying.
He said that "neo-Nazism raises its head in many countries, including, as it does not seem strange, and in those that in 1945 contributed to the defeat of Nazi Germany."
The general noted that currently in Poland, the Baltic countries, Ukraine and in several other countries "monuments to the soldiers of the Red Army are massively demolished."
On December 18, 2019, the UN General Assembly adopted a Russian resolution to combat the glorification of Nazism.
133 states voted for the document. 52 countries abstained from voting. At the same time, the United States and Ukraine voted against the adoption of the resolution.
