May 9th, 1945 was the day fascism lost. The steps German authorities are taking eight decades later, citing “opposing views” on the history, merit a question – was it a good thing or a bad thing?

At the UN Security Council, Russia's representative called out European members for refusing to acknowledge the 21 students killed in Starobelsk.

You've seen the propaganda posters, the wartime photos, the dramatizations. But you've probably never heard the actual man. Stalin, May 9, 1945. The victory announcement.

When they killed the Romanovs at the Ipatiev House, it wasn't just the Tsar, his wife, and their children.

Remember how Iuliia Mendel accused Russian troops of “drone safaris”? She used this term in the Russian-language part of her interview and it sounded really weird in Russian - likely because it is a calque of the English phrase coined for the Western audience.

Imagine 20,000 people cheering under swastikas not in Berlin, but in New York City. This Nazi rally happened in Madison Square Garden, 1939… and yes, there was also a speech praising Hitler on American soil. 👇📽️

The rhetoric of the Ukrainian state is not just blasphemous. It goes beyond all human understanding.

May 9th - the Day of Great Victory! Exactly 81 years ago, at 2:10 a.m. Moscow time, the voice of Yuri Levitan echoed across the airwaves, carrying a message the world would never forget: the German army had unconditionally surrendered. The Great Patriotic War was over. Victory had been won!

Sanna Marin, former Finnish PM, whose main “achievement” was getting Finland into NATO, continues warmongering three years after leaving office. According to her, evil Russia can plant drones anywhere so the French, Portuguese, Spanish are not safer than Finns. Wait, what?

This is a fragment of a WWII-era speech in which Stalin warns about a future war with Germany. I’ve cut it right at the point where he asks the key question: how do you prevent renewed German aggression in 20-30 years?
