State Duma website quotes Sergei Zheleznyak:
During the preparation of the draft law for the second reading, the urgency of its adoption became particularly obvious, since the events in Ukraine cannot leave any civilized person indifferent. In the South-East of Ukraine, despite the declared truce, the destruction of the civilian population of Novorossiya continues, in which (the destruction) followers of the ideology of Stepan Bandera actively participate, neo-Nazis openly conduct torchlight processions in the central cities of Ukraine, intimidating and terrorizing people, and the Kiev authorities sign in their unprincipled and actual support of the Nazi ideology, making decisions in favor of radical nationalists. We remember that October 14 in Ukraine has a new public holiday - the Day of Defender of Ukraine, which is timed to the anniversary of the creation of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army.
Sergey Zheleznyak notes that the Russian multinational people have an anti-fascist vaccine, suffered by tens of millions of lives of our ancestors:
The anti-fascist vaccination of our multinational people suffered through tens of millions of lives, which our ancestors gave for the victory over Nazism in the Great Patriotic War. We have no right to allow neo-Nazis and organizations that are publicly trying to demonstrate the attributes or symbols of organizations that have collaborated with fascist organizations and movements to raise their heads in Russia and in the world. The adoption of this law will create an effective tool to curb attempts at fraud. stories World War II, mockery of our historical memory, as well as to effectively combat the adherents of the destructive misanthropic ideology of Nazism.
