declaration of war german troops attacked our borders on their planes, our cities of 70 66 kg, such tore our earth by the thousands. but this, like hundreds of the same, sits in the body of the country to touch. extremely dangerous bomb on cocked, we are trying to destroy what was supposed to destroy us this is not some kind of cold story. she is still.

almost 80 years have passed, several generations have changed, and we still remember how in 1941 they came to kill us. this is a heavy memories that today are diligently blotted out from the memory of entire nations. too many promises. with this people it is not necessary is to dose. july 2009 vilnius meeting of the parliamentary

session of the ussr who attacked whom on june 21 , 1941, did we attack germany or germany attacked us? what nonsense 75 years ago, we didn't just win the war. we saved the world from fascism at an exorbitant price. today they are trying to make us forget about the 26 million dead. to convince us that our fathers and grandfathers were not warriors, liberators, but aggressors and occupiers, and to betray the memory

of heroes. alive and dead war, like old wounds healed, but everything it still hurts. we all grew up on the stories of our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers, but time mercilessly witnesses of those years are leaving us, and with them the memory of what this war really is. i go to school and there i encounter complete ignorance and the history of its war can’t say anything, they ask, and who did ukraine fight against? russia didn’t fight? the past cannot be changed, but it turns out that it can be changed gently step by step. and now the criminals become the heroes of the punishers, honest

soldiers. hitler was a man who really wanted to make germany a great country a model country. 80 years ago, irm fried brendhal also dreamed of a greater germany right after school. he enrolled in the wehrmacht volunteers the third reich was already victoriously marching across europe and the german boys were rushing to the front. i’m not sorry, i proudly served as a soldier, and then as an officer, and i’m proud that i survived this war, returned from captivity, opened my own construction company and made a fortune on the restoration of post-war germany veteran. the wehrmacht likes to repeat exactly

the war. made him what he is now and does not understand. why today in his country they do not like to remember the old days so much, which makes me angry that in germany old experienced people are asked very little, for example. those who were in the third reich are interested, but they prefer to avoid any problems. back in 2010, this former nazi would not have dared to say, even half of what he boldly declares in 2020 in certain circles of german society , the effect of the vaccine obtained in forty-five. and now they are trying to persuade us, the victors of the nazism, to be less proud of our past. and here now they get photographs that have not been shown to anyone for decades. here you can see me already equipped during the journey to france, the first

fights in france here gunkirk. for example, i also participated here rotor ladies. yes, i was an avid photographer. private karl heinsmeier traveled all over europe with a rifle and a camera by the summer of 1941. he has accumulated a lot of awards and from them demonstrating this card karl no longer hides his pride in the successful shot of occupied brussels in you the searcher got himself the fuhrer went to the city to buy himself chocolate, i approached the north station. then the door opens and hitler keitel and a couple of officers come out. i immediately took my camera out of my pocket and snapped the photo, and they let me do it. hitler even nodded. i greeted him like this. a few months after this meeting, private

mayer was already fighting on the eastern front, fighting for the fuhrer, making germany great and believed that defending his homeland from us. war because the russians were ready. the key word is later, that is, ordinary mayer already at his soil age. they were convinced that he, together with the fuhrer, waged a preventive war against the russians, and he and the fuhrer were right, otherwise stalin would have attacked europe , the reichsleiter of propaganda of the third reich joseph goebels in his time, formulated 10 rules of what is already in our time called information warfare, one of them is the most famous, the more monstrous the lie. the easier it is to believe in her death is dead, but in a lie about

that the russians wanted to attack europe today is forced to believe. what do you think, by whom and for what purpose a gigantic process of rewriting history has been launched today, uh, maybe this is really someone's purposeful work to revive nazism. there is such a risk, in general, history has nothing to do with it. this is relevant to today, this is a tool for solving internal political issues of today for some countries, uh, which u rely on certain circles within their country, uh, and exaggerate in every possible way this problem, but the problem hmm problems problems of the census of history related to the fact that there is an internal political struggle in some countries and i repeat. e. those who do. hmm, they are cheering up their electorate.

that's the way. about why, in fact, hitler turned his gaze to the east, eloquently, the letters of his soldiers testify. here it is. for example, from the field paramedic gubert schens, the date on the envelope on june 22 forty-one is written to their bride in germany. soon there will be reports of the conquest of the territory. it will raise mood, because it seems that we started off, when we finish with the russians, only the british will be left not the top, dear. i think we will soon see the end of the war, but a letter from private karl günther is written to his father from the eastern front. he boasts that he found an excellent hat in the ruined house and about how the reich will get rich on the occupied lands during our march. we capture huge warehouses with food and other useful things. the german administration is working on what to organize the collection the vast fields of the local harvest were relatively little affected by the war. ukrainian grain

produces german bread. the so-called german bread and the same german butter, sugar, meat, were mercilessly taken away from the inhabitants of the occupied soviet villages, where soon people were dying of hunger. but the heroes of the third reich, going on vacation. the fuhrer's packages were received in germany. here they are coupons for gourmet food packages, but they wanted to take more with them from the ussr, the same karl günther dreamed in a letter. i would still take two. ukraine they are not spoiled labors of favorite orders, but with good treatment. they will cope with the work much better than our german assistants are similar, perhaps something will still be able to organize these letters, and here we read tens of thousands of them in the archive of the berlin museum of communications , you can listen for a long time

how someone justifies that he attacked the ussr defending europe from stalin, but the german soldiers themselves in the forty -first they knew for sure why they came with weapons to a foreign country the road today was pleasant and calm, but stallions and calves graze in the meadows, if not for the war, one could say that the view is magnificent. i think that in a couple of years it will be possible to supply the whole of europe from here. such evidence, european historians and politicians today prefer to hush up instead, according to the ideological fashion they nod at the molotov-rebentrop pact, they say. here it is a direct proof of the cooperation of the two-cannibalistic regimes. colossal efforts in order to create an anti-hitler fact no one supported more than thirty

in the eighth year, uh, the leading western countries and great britain and france met the nazis and signed the corresponding documents, which we always called the minusinsk conspiracy and handed over to be torn to pieces in czechoslovakia and no matter how pleasant or unpleasant it was for someone, but in this case it became more and so on and the soviet union actually condemned the secret part in the late eighties. well, why, why don’t today hmm do the same on our colleagues, don’t judge, this section of slovakia, the soviet union was generally one of the biggest powers that e signed with germany before that all signed. and and what kind of uh is this basis for blaming the soviet union uh for preparing and unleashing the second world war? sunday at exactly 3:00 am, our guns

opened fire on russian territory for four hours and 10 minutes, after artillery preparation. we crossed the border at that moment german tanks rumble next to me, which are moving to the east, apparently we caught the russians by surprise. four hours, i remember how now i decided to go for a little something. yesterday we passed by a red airfield in the forest, soviet planes stood in a row. some burned out, others badly damaged. on the very first day. they were destroyed on earth. nearby lay many beans in the writings

of western historians. the first days of the battles on the eastern front are usually described as the absolute triumph of the nazi war machine , german soldiers parade through soviet soil, and the defeated and demoralized red army soldiers surrender by the thousands. in reality, nowhere else has the wehrmacht encountered such stubborn resistance. burnt out by soviet tanks, cars and corpses, damn it, there are few of them here alone, the killed russians are hiding in the forests and fields and suddenly appear and shoot in a line. last night. they thus completely destroyed the oboss with food for the infantrymen. our prisoners or several russians one of them suddenly. i put the group in my pocket and threw a grenade, two of our

formations died after a short time , one lieutenant and three privates were killed in the same way on the eighth day of the war, the chief of staff of the ground forces, franz halter, noted in in his diary, russian resistance forces us to fight according to all the rules of our combat regulations in poland and in the west. we could afford a certain liberties. now this is no longer acceptable. the german soldiers themselves this war demands a lot of sacrifices from the german people, when we find out at the end, the total number of the fallen, we will have to be horrified. many graves along the roads testify to this double. it is so heavy here that the company against france was in comparison. probably just a walk. in a few days our connections will be replaced too great losses capitulated in less than a month and a half.

belgium could not stand it and for three weeks most of europe surrendered almost without a fight. before the attack on the ussr, the germans were sure that they would pass through our land, easily and quickly, just as the sobering up at the parade was cruel. in the first three months of the war against the soviet union , the germans lost half a million people, one and a half times more than in the previous two years. chiki he brazenly smiled and said, come me to

your seconding in full. he didn't want to fight anymore. here is another interesting message from the front, the german soldier karl helt wrote a letter on a blank soviet combat leaflet, apparently he wanted to brag to his friends, or maybe just time to look for another paper. the private did not have his unit urgently transferred to moscow . my parents will also be happy when i say hello from russia next year there will be an operation against england. if i get out of there alive, then i will be glad to take off my soldier's uniform. despite the huge loss of mood in the german

troops, then it was still victorious, but in the letters of the soldiers, bewilderment was already slipping between the lines. why do the russians keep resisting? it would be high time to give up like the rest of civilized europe hope that the war will end soon in his speech radiated will to win, you can imagine how happy we all would be at the end of the campaign, because the deprivation is getting worse for a few more weeks. we will continue with pleasure, but then we have to finish. these letters, which have never been published before, show that germans in the forty-first did not even allow themselves to doubt the victory, they even arranged a sweepstakes. how much longer will it last? moscow i'm fine. we are already making bets here that the war will end by october 30th. i don't mind. i kiss your erns

sheremetyevo airport is on the left of us and the klyazma river is on the right to the center of moscow from here in a straight line 24 km. in november of the forty-first year, this entire village. the germans were already here. them. it seemed that literally the last spurt and moscow they will take in good weather. from this bell tower the germans with binoculars could to calmly see the kremlin tower of the forty-first year in moscow it was cloudy, low clouds german aviation remained at the airfields about what was happening in the soviet capital, the command of the wehrmacht learned not because of reconnaissance, but from the reports of the bureau that day on red square passed the famous parade was not yet the winners, but the definitely not defeated was put in a car and

taken out. now i remember which streets across kuibyshev street and immediately to red square , they landed us here, put us in line with all the soldiers, and then marched in steel, able to destroy. they look at you son. yes , be worthy of these great our commanders. i remember his words, because they were not only us, who we stood on the cobblestones on red square, listened to his speech , the soviet union inspired these

patriotic words. it is known that when hitler found out about this parade, he was furious at his plans. the wehrmacht had long been supposed to occupy moscow with troops. they even managed to start boxes with iron crosses to reward the heroes of the reich for the capture of the soviet capital, however , some german soldiers in moscow on red square in those days, however, turned out to be one of them was wolfgang morel, the war for him lasted only 12 days. in the first
