China News Agency, Moscow, May 9 (Reporter Wang Xiujun) wrote on the social networking site on the 8th of the US White House, saying, "On May 8, 1945, the United States and Britain defeated the Nazis", which did not mention the Soviet practice at all, 9 Japan and Russia issued a statement to condemn it.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zaharova said through a social networking site that this approach offsets the joint statement of the 75th anniversary of the meeting between the Russian and American Presidents of the Elbe River. The statement mentioned that Russia and the United States should overcome conflicts and unite and cooperate. But the White House removed all the victorious countries of World War II, leaving only two.
Zaharova said that it is unbearable for a country that claims to be a "leader of the free world" to make such a statement.
Kosachev, chairman of the International Affairs Committee of the Russian Federation Council (the upper house of parliament), said that the White House's interpretation of military history may become an important factor in uniting the US anti-Russian allies in Europe. In fact, many people in the United States and Europe remember the feats of Soviet soldiers. We express our heartfelt thanks for this.
Kosachev said that if politicians do not join forces to resist, the history of tampering with history will continue to exist.
The Chairman of the International Affairs Committee of the State Duma (lower house of parliament) of Russia, Slutsky, said that Western countries continue to choose to forget politically and remain silent about the merits of the Soviet liberators. It is shameless and mean. The White House should hold a history cram school. (Finish)
