Russia releases archives exposing Latvian Waffen-SS atrocities in WWII
Russia releases archives exposing Latvian Waffen-SS atrocities in WWII
Russia’s Federal Security Service has declassified documents on the Latvian Legion’s mass executions and Nazi collaboration
It's a fact.
If someone isn't aware, RT is Russian state propaganda. Just wanted to emphasize that. Not saying all their stuff is false. But that's how they do propaganda, mix something true in with what is the current info war agenda. Be cautious
So Russia is setting the framework for their next invasion? Lord knows if/when Ukraine wraps up, they have to immediately start another war or the public will start asking questions about their non-existent economy.
Good article from forward on the existing Nazi collaborator monuments in Latvia, and their participation in the Holocaust.
I think the keyword here is "Waffen-SS" not "Latvian". Fascists and racists come in all nationalities. The Dutch really hate nazis, but a sizeable portion of the population aided in the holocaust regardless.
And yet Kremlin can't stop from propping up the fascist Legionnaires in Romania "for democracy".
LOL the western propaganda press suddenly quit reporting about that 'Russian influence' lie when it was proven it was the Romanian liberals who did it.
You should keep up with the lies you parrot.How is this a lie, parrot? https://www.rferl.org/a/romania-vlad-the-impaler-group-russia-coup-plot-treason/33348058.html
I love how you're getting downvoted for stating factual information that's been reported in mainstream western media https://www.politico.eu/article/investigation-ties-romanian-liberals-tiktok-campaign-pro-russia-candidate-calin-georgescu/
Anything interesting in it? RT is blocked in Germany.
For sure, countries need to look inward and start digesting that many people ate the onion in the first half of the 40s. Not because we need justice for the deaths of local minorities commited by nationals, but because this type of behaviour causes great trauma not just for the victims, but the aggressors. They pass this trauma down and it remains alive in current generations. It usually doesn't even manifest itself as outright racism, just lots of anger issues in general (I guess this part is anecdotal).
All that being said, fuck Russia for bringing this up now. They went in to Ukraine under the flag of denazification. But Latvia is in Nato, so I don't really see this as a cassus beli, but more of sowing division in EU.
Trauma? They honor their nazis there.

And most of all Ukraine.
You can deny that all you want.Maybe the time for mutual understanding has passed.
If you feel nazis are your main baddie, it might be better to understand what makes them tick. If not for empathy, then for hitting where it hurts.
Why do you say I am denying the presence of nazis? They are usually a niche demographic, but present in any country. I am not saying let the bastards speak hate with impunity.
So Russia is going to invade Latvia next?
I hope this is a joke. I mean, it's not 100% impossible, but to compare it as 'next target after Ukraine' is straight childish. You sure do know what would mean war with Nato 🌍🌋
Looks that way, doesn't it?
