This is stated in the telegram to the organizers and participants of the events dedicated to the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of the Holocaust and the 78th anniversary of the liberation by the Red Army of the prisoners of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp (Auschwitz).
“We must clearly understand that any attempt to revise our country’s contribution to the Great Victory actually means justifying the crimes of Nazism, opens the way for the revival of its deadly ideology,” the president said.
Earlier, State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, stated the need to do everything possible so that the tragedy does not happen again.
