⚠️ The Russian Foreign Ministry published the next report regarding the situation with the glorification of Nazism and the spread of Neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance.

❗️Today, there is a growing trend in a number of States to publicly justify and glorify #Nazism and #Nazi figures, and to support neo-Nazism in order to serve the biased political ambitions of external curators. The earlier campaigns to distort history and falsify the role of the USSR in ensuring the Victory over Nazism in the Great Patriotic War and World War II and creating the modern system of international relations have received a strong impetus.

The cynicism, historical revisionism and revanchism inherent in the leadership of a number of Western countries are aimed at the complete substitution of notions and the swapping of places between the authors of racial purity ideologies who unleashed the war and nations that opposed them.

🇱🇻 Latvia pursues a policy of deliberate falsification of history, justifying former Waffen-SS legionnaires and Nazi collaborators who are honoured as participants in "national liberation movements."

❗️The building-up of a parallel historic reality is used everywhere to justify Latvia's blasphemous glorification of Latvian SS legionnaires, Nazi collaborators, and to justify the open struggle against the memory of the Red Army soldiers who liberated Latvia from Nazism.

☝️ Latvia, along with Canada, Lithuania and Estonia, is among the few countries in the world where SS criminals continue to be openly honoured, contrary to the verdict of the Nuremberg Tribunal, as well as numerous international acts, including the annual resolution adopted by the UN General Assembly on combating the glorification of Nazism.

⚠️🇨🇦 For many decades, the Canadian authorities have pursued a policy of justifying and glorifying #Nazism.

By openly supporting the Nazi regime of #Kiev in the international arena, and, even more so, by increasing military aid, they trample on the memory of the exploits of Canadians who fought against Nazism and fascism in the anti-Hitler coalition.

It is telling that in 2022-2023, the Canadian delegation voted against the draft resolution "Combating the glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to the escalation of contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance", introduced annually by Russia together with other co-sponsors, in the #UN General Assembly.

❗️Canada became a "haven" for Nazi war criminals and their accomplices from various Waffen-SS units and collaborators. In this country, such individuals were granted permanent residency and then citizenship. Canadian authorities shielded them from justice and prevented their extradition to other countries for prosecution.
