FSB reveals the names of Estonian punishers who destroyed villages in the Pskov region during the war

131

The Federal Security Service (FSB) for the first time revealed the names of the Estonian punishers who destroyed villages and villages in the Pskov region during the Great Patriotic War. The declassified documents list by name dozens of nationalists from Estonia, who dealt with the civilian population of the territory occupied by the German fascists.

About it сообщает news agency RIA News.



Archival documents contain dire details of the atrocities of these Nazi henchmen, who operated as part of the 37th guard battalion on the territory of the Pskov region. The tasks of this punitive unit, formed from Estonian nationalists, included the fight against partisans and reprisals against the civilian population.

As stated in the documents provided by the FSB Directorate for the Pskov region, one of the most resonant crimes of the 37th battalion was the destruction of the village of Laneva Gora along with the inhabitants, which was committed in 1943. Then the Estonian Nazis shot and burned 55 villagers, of whom 32 were children. At the same time, the punishers did not spare even three infants.

When the Pskov region was liberated from the Nazi invaders, a specially created commission investigated the crimes of the Nazis and their henchmen. She found out that out of 406 Pskov villages, the punishers wiped out 325 from the face of the Earth.

              So they were not found then, immediately after the war. The division of Europe into 2 camps forced to create a buffer zone for the USSR from the former allies, and the sound of then uncaught punishers would complicate the relationship. I think so.

              Including because these nonhumans also had innocent relatives who could suffer in an illusory way from popular anger. In addition, the USSR had an absolutely correct doctrine - the names of such criminals had to disappear into oblivion so that no one had the opportunity to appeal to their memory. After all, the USSR did not plan its collapse. If the USSR had not ended, then there would have been no problem with the fascists in Estonia now. Hardly anyone there would want to be their follower.

          This is not only Estonia. The Czech Republic generally ended the Second World War in the status of an autonomous territory of the German Reich - a protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. With what fright the Czech Republic again became an independent state, and did not remain a part of the GDR / FRG during the division, is an interesting question. With the territories in Eastern Europe, following the results of the Second World War, a lot of interesting things happened http://ru-an.info/n/70483/.
          Perhaps it is really high time for Russia, as the legal successor of the USSR, to denounce the recognition of independence and the borders of "friendly" neighbors. It can be a lot of fun.lol

Since childhood, they lived side by side, went to school, but the war separated them on different sides. After the war, they again lived side by side, went to the bathhouse together, but after the bath, when they were drunk, a scuffle began and it came to knives. And in many villages and cities it was. And if at that time all the "adventures" of the accomplices had been published, the case would not have ended with a massacre and kitchen knives, lynching would have begun, and then it would have been worse.

      If you dig deeper into the archives, you will see the crimes of the Estonian Nazis, which are not much different from the crimes committed by Himmler's Einsatzkommando ...
      One to one ... mass executions, non-human interrogations, bullying ... in general, a complete set of sadistic addictions of those who are now considered heroes in Estonia.
      During Soviet times, the emphasis on the nationality of criminals was hidden by the policy of internationalism ... but in vain.

                  Punishers were searched for until the 80s. There were also show trials.

It is not for nothing that the Hague Convention divides the warring parties (combatants) and the civilian population and prohibits their mixing - this causal relationship was obvious to the creators of the Convention at the beginning of the 20th century. By the way, the Nazis do not become less criminal from this crime.

                and in this place you are substituting concepts. I didn't write that. It's about scale. The connection of some of the deaths of our people with the accepted forms of partisan warfare is obvious.

                  As you wrote, so I understood
                  It's just that those who committed the crimes you described were not amnestied until they were imprisoned, if they were not shot immediately
                  Some were tried twice as new facts emerged.
                  As for the cooks and janitors, there were also technical employees of the administrations, all sorts of land surveyors, technicians and others.

                    Well, yes, all of you listed, however, all one henchmen of the killers, since the Wehrmacht from the SS in humanity did not differ. If we say "one way or another". Well, in general, we had cooks and technicians behind enemy lines who destroyed the enemy no worse than the partisans.

                        Well, yes, only for the good of what? Of course, everything can be justified by the desire to simply live for the population. However, what was taught in these schools? And about the work and maintenance of the Wehrmacht_ generally keep quiet.

    Reprint the list, make a huge banner and put it on the Russian side facing Estonia at every border crossing in the Pskov region. Suffice it to write- These Estonians are punishers and murderers of children. Damn them!
    Let every Estonian who enters our country know that everything is remembered here.

    You can't forget !!!! Everything that relates to collaborators and especially war criminals must be pulled out of the archives! Methodically and constantly eat up the baldness of all the Nazi singers in hushing up war crimes and, in fact, their "rehabilitation" with blatant "days of reconciliation", etc. !! In principle, start any official dialogue with the Baltic nonentities with accusations of crimes against humanity !!!

    Then they should all be mowed down to one, here not only Estonians and others too.
    Because of these bastards, my grandmother lived to be only 56 years old.
    Mother lived in cellars and basements and baths that were heated in black.

    It's a good thing .. only .. the son does not answer for his father .. I just came across on the Internet a seemingly patriotic short film "circus performer" .. And he began to swear .. How beautiful and competently everything is shown .. - According to the plot - they stand two little girls with loops around their necks under the gallows in the village. The plates are partisans. An evil fascist in a leather coat walks past the formation of "good" Germans and hits them in the fascist muzzles because they do not want to hang up little Russian partisans.! And adult Russian partisans in clean military uniforms sit in the bushes and do not dare to attack the damned fascists. That is, do you understand what's going on? The Germans are all. - were good! They did not hang anyone, they did not burn or shoot! it sometimes met one or two evil .. And the Russian one is a clown who distracts and makes all the Germans laugh so that they don't hang the girls .. this is a movie .. and I thought .. -director, cattle you .. would you talk about Zina I shot a movie for Portnova, how she, already caught, managed to shoot the Germans and escape .. a 15-year-old girl .. And what torments she endured without betraying anyone when her wounded woman was caught .. The idea of ​​forgiving "good Germans", patriotic policemen and punishers. is diligently advancing in today's Russia .. Stake your teeth, forgiving and conciliators .. We have no right to forget the crimes against our country and our people .. There is no statute of limitations for such crimes !.

      So they summed up, it's simple, but very clear.
      The son is not responsible for the father, but the authorities must have the political will to stop antics "Heirs", moreover, so that there was no desire to try again to pass the procession

    I didn't get it. And where is the declassified list / list of the names of the monsters? Or a link to a source containing it? No list - nothing to discuss. The 37th Security Battalion is nothing new.

    The "grandfather" Stalin IV was very kind. when, after the end of WWII, he allowed the content of THESE in the camps for the purpose of "re-education". Too kind !!! They "did not know, they were forced," and so on. etc. Only the dead don't shoot in the back !!! Axiom, damn it ....
