A vivid comment by the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, on the statements of the Polish Foreign Minister on the "release of Auschwitz prisoners by the Ukrainians"
The point, apparently, is different. We believe that we must stop mocking history and in the anti-Russian hysteria to reach disrespect for the memory of those who did not spare their lives for the sake of the liberation of Europe.
Maria Zakharova, Deputy Head of the Information and Press Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, on her Facebook page, also commented on the statements made by Polish Foreign Minister Mr. Schethina (Schetyna). In her commentary, Maria Zakharova writes that, according to the logic of the Polish minister, Poland should be responsible for actions, for example, Felix Dzerzhinsky, and the Balts should not grumble at all, since they themselves (the Baltic Front) "occupied" themselves ... Shetyny representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation called the historical vandalism.
We present the bright and emotional post of Maria Zakharova on Facebook in full:
Only we took a deep breath after exciting statements by Yatseniuk about Russia's invasion of Germany and Ukraine, like a baton in the race of historical vandalism, Mr. Shetyna, the Polish Foreign Minister, snatched from his hands.
Commenting on the question of inviting the Russian side to the 70 anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz camp, he literally said: “It’s better to say that this is the Ukrainian front, the First Ukrainian front and the Ukrainians liberated Auschwitz, because there were Ukrainian soldiers on that day in January. they opened the camp gates, and they freed the camp. ”
In principle, that Yatsenyuk, that Shetyne in hellish logic can not be denied - everything fits: Russia attacked peaceful Germany and an independent Ukraine, and the Ukrainian front, which fought the Soviet occupation, liberated Auschwitz, and it doesn’t matter from whom.
You know, it’s only at first glance an enchanting insanity. If we continue this logical chain, it will not find it not at all to Russia. Look here. If, according to Shetyna, the Auschwitz was liberated by the Ukrainians, since it was the Ukrainian front, then the Baltic was liberated by the Balts, their Baltic fronts. And accordingly, there was no occupation by the Soviet troops of these countries, on which they built the concept of the historical struggle, and there was no: they liberated themselves, and then they occupied themselves.
Go ahead. Who raised the flag over the Reichstag? Kantaria, Egorov and Berest. So the responsibility "for the occupation of Germany" (according to Yatsenyuk) should be borne not only by Russia, but also by Georgia and Ukraine.
What do we have next? BUT! Soviet totalitarianism, repression, the gulag, for which it is Russia. Now we know - all the questions to Tbilisi, and partially to Sukhum. Russia, according to this logic, is reliably covered by Mikhail Ivanovich Kalinin.
And, of course, these are the Soviet secret services hated by the whole world that scare children. Mr. Shetyna, do not want to answer for Felix Edmundovich?
Now seriously. There is nothing worse than similar games on historical bones and dances with national tambourines. That is how national identity is degraded into nationalism and, of course, it mutates to Nazism. It is with these words that the process of the rapid and sometimes irrevocable, though very pleasant, fall of a man into the abyss of a comprehensive national question begins.
It is strange to write, but still:
1. Auschwitz freed Red Army units.
2. The units of the Red Army were not formed according to the national principle.
3. The First Ukrainian Front - October 20 was formed on 1943 of the year by renaming the Voronezh Front (hopefully, where Voronezh is located, Mr. Shetyna knows). The Second Ukrainian Front was formed on October 20 1943 by renaming the Steppe Front - there is no such nationality at all. I will make a reservation - while there wasn’t, you never know what else we have to hear. The third Ukrainian Front was formed on October 20 on 1943 by renaming the South-Western Front. And the Fourth Ukrainian Front was formed by renaming the Southern Front.
4. The absence of the First Russian and the Seventh Georgian Fronts does not mean the non-participation of the Russians and Georgians in the battles of the Great Patriotic War.
5. The soldiers of the Red Army were people of different nationalities. We do not divide the Victory into Russian, Belarusian, Armenian, Ukrainian, Jewish, Georgian, Tatar, Ossetian, etc. She, as we sing, is one for all, because the price did not stand.
6. No one has the right to manipulate the memory of the soldiers of the Red Army, taking advantage of the fact that most of them can no longer give for such words in the face.
Mr. Schetynne would have read it.
