00:00Eighty years ago, Soviet soldiers took Berlin to end the Second World War.
00:04However, Chancellor Olaf Scholz declared that he was grateful to the United States for liberating
00:09his country from the Nazis.
00:11From Moscow, our colleague Oleg Yasinski with more.
00:16Eighty years ago, Soviet soldiers took Berlin to end the Second World War.
00:23For the Soviet Union, this was the great patriotic war costing millions of soldiers and civilian
00:29lives.
00:30An inconvenient truth for the West today, whose leaders, such as the United States President
00:35and the German Chancellor, openly deny and misrepresent it.
00:39So my view is that Germany has a good reason to take the responsibility that comes from
00:45the bad past.
00:46We are very happy about the United States that freed our country and helped us to become
00:52a democracy again.
00:56Russian history has in fact become a weapon against Russia, demerit the effort and sacrifice
01:02of the Western Soviet people to justify United States' hegemony on the European continent.
01:09Scholz wants to insult the Russian people, intentionally, to please the U.S. deep state.
01:15This is part of his policy, mandated by the previous U.S. administration.
01:21My best prizes were for the victory over Germany and for the capture of the city of
01:25Berlin.
01:30Russia was also not invited to the 80th anniversary celebrations of the liberation of Auschwitz
01:35by the Soviet army.
01:36Its absence from the commemoration events is more than an insult to the memory of those
01:40who gave their lives to save the world from Nazism.
01:44Rewriting history to suit political interests is a way of creating new conflicts.
01:52In the concentration camp, people came up to us, they wanted to touch the stars.
01:56They were trying to convince themselves that the Russians had come and liberated them.
02:00They were all like skeletons.
02:02It was impossible to stay there for more than three minutes.
02:05It was scary to watch, it was impossible.
02:12Without the authority of the Soviet Union, they had no chance for revenge.
02:16And now, for the first time in many decades, they have the opportunity.
02:21And they are taking advantage of it in every possible way.
02:24It is enough to listen to the absolutely disgusting statements of almost all European leaders.
02:29And first of all the French, Germans and English.
02:39Those words are an offense not only to Russia, but to thousands of anti-fascist Germans,
02:44the real heroes of their people who went to the death camps together with communists and
02:47Jews and those who managed to save their lives.
02:50It was thanks to the Red Army.
