Russian Foreign Ministry accused Lithuanian authorities of indulging fascists and neo-Nazis

Konstantin Dolgov, the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia for Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law, commented on the speech of the Lithuanian Minister of Justice Remigijus Šimašius in the UN Human Rights Council 11 in October 2011.

The outrage of the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry caused the fact that in his speech Shimashyus equated the Soviet Union with Nazi Germany, saying that "both regimes violated human rights" and "occupied Lithuania".

"Such a rude attempt of falsification stories confirms the intention of Vilnius to continue to indulge the fascists and neo-Nazis, ignoring the lessons of the Second World War and bringing the historical truth to oblivion, causing outrage against the background of serious claims that were made during the review of the human rights situation in Lithuania, ”the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

In response, Moscow demanded that Vilnius promptly "eradicate manifestations of racism and neo-Nazism, stop attempts to revise the outcome of the Second World War, glorify fascist henchmen and persecute anti-fascist veterans" and take measures to end "discrimination of the Russian-speaking population of Lithuania in the cultural and linguistic spheres". Other UN member states also made significant claims to Lithuania.

For years, Vilnius has ignored the fact that neo-Nazi and racist marches are openly taking place in Lithuanian cities. They are usually held twice a year - 16 February (Day of Independence of Lithuania) and 11 March (Day of Restoration of Independence of Lithuania).

The influence of Europe on the countries of the former USSR is very big now. They want to make Russia a rutted mouse. But I don't think they will succeed.

[MrFYGY]

The statement is sooooo late, but in general it’s necessary to move from words to action!

[SIA]

So they will not succeed. no matter how they sniff.

[rnb1983]

They still whine, but they won’t calm down ...

[SIA]

But the Russian Foreign Ministry must act clearly and firmly. Protect Russians. Once to warn the Lithuanian authorities that if something like this happens again, we will introduce tanks to the territory of Lithuania.

[URB]

why? so that innocent people die? would you be pleased if tanks were brought into your city!?

[redmont]

the easiest thing is to drive tanks ...

[redmont]

The simplest thing is tanks ... and here you need words and sanctions ... like Americans

[kostiknet]

yeah, fasting and prayer and the larger the caliber - the longer the post!!! They don't give a damn about our MFA from the Eiffel Tower, Obama doesn't tell them to be afraid of us.

[lightforcer]

Yes, yes, introducing tanks is unusually simple, but Lithuania is still a NATO member, albeit a very small one.

[svvaulsh]

I think the word "member" is the key

[PSih2097]

here you need words and sanctions ... like amerikosy

adjust the AUG, declare it a free flight zone, suppress air defense ... and their tomahawks, tomahawks ...

[подводник]

Lithuanians are probably now twitching in their sleep and waking up with crazy eyes after the "Commissioner of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs ........ commented" How much should our armless Foreign Ministry be to deal with "comments"! Why not stop buying sprats, for example or other similar products produced by the Baltic states? No, we will just pretend that we are very upset! It's like in kindergarten - I won't be friends with you - you throw poop!

[solodova]

I agree, economic sanctions will be valid. They, as members of the European Union, falling apart from the economic crisis, will become very objectionable. EU and Greece are heavy, become Lithuania with the same ballast, its mouth will be quickly covered.
The people agree to live without fascist sprats?

[LESHA pancake]

EVERYTHING DEPENDS ON THE BALTS THEMSELVES; IF THEY CONTINUE IN THE SAME SPIRIT, THEY WILL GAIN NOTHING BESIDES TROUBLE.

[Marat]

Really need to boycott their goods!
The whole country - almost the entire people and government, unfortunately, are sick with Nazism - anti-Russian sentiments - the treatment can only be difficult and long. I don't like fascists in general - especially the Baltic ones

[Ivan35]

Comrades! Be vigilant! Baltic fascists on the site! They downvote both the submariner and Solodova and Marat and Don

I support a boycott of Baltic goods
And they need to "cut off" oil products and gas

I often disagree with Mitrich - but here I remembered how he called them - I support - "perejabalty"

[solodova]

Ivan35, these are some sick people who downvote everyone on all articles without any logic. Not only us, whom you mentioned, but the rest too. Nevertheless, with the support of the people, I was granted the rank of major, although undeservedly, but still, thank you all.

[Don]

Such statements can be made every month, not only to Lithuania, but also to Estonia and Latvia. It is time for Europe to take more radical steps. Here in Ukraine, UEFA President Platini flew in, expressed concern about the Nazis in Lviv and threatened in the event of further manifestations of fascism, delete Lviv from the cities hosting the European Football Championship in 2012. All ultra-right parties immediately subsided.

[LESHA pancake]

SHOW ME HOW THE BALTS SHOT DEFENCELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN '41. I HOPE THEY WILL FINALLY SHUT UP.

[sirToad]

Vaska listens and eats.

[подводник]

I would like to recall the immortal lines of the great poet: "Our foreign commanders do not dare to tear their uniforms against Russian bayonets!"

[Denis]

tanks are emotions ...
but it’s easy to pin down economically! to cover ALL trade with them and who will be bent?
Well, not right away, of course, the West will try to feed its "sixes" in life, but they will quickly get tired of it and the toad will choke

[Alexei]

Oh, this Baltic ... Police beat my cousin in Estonia to death because he was reckless to celebrate the May 9 holiday, motivating his actions with the fact that there is no such holiday in Estonia. You check out what cynicism! I think that In addition to economic pressure, you need to show a cruel Russian grin from time to time. Not tanks, but poke racquets and aim back and forth so that they know about it and understand that they are pawns in the big game. They all consider Russia aggressive, and why don't they play along?

[Denis]

port !!! Ust-Luga port should be quickly completed and yuh then to Talaponians, and not money for transit. Quickly bend and out of habit
