FSB seeks rehabilitation of Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact
Paul Goble has turned the attention to the FSB hosted roundtable on 22.April on “Problems of the Publication of Sources about the Great Fatherland War, Criticism of Attempts at the Falsification of History”. On Roundtable several participants stated that the Russian and foreign historians, novelists and filmmakers are falsifying the history of the second world war and the Soviet Union’s role in it. The President of the Association of Historians of the II WW Oleg Rzheshevsky called for the Russian parliament to overturn the 1989 condemnation of the “secret protocols” of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Rzheshevsky argued that the Stalin’s decision was justified. By Rzheshevsky most important what that Stalin defeated Hitler, which puts everything else that happened in those times in the other perspective, justifiying so Stalin’s crimes. This is only one example of the campaign in current Russia to restore the “historical truth” and protect the heritage of Soviet Union.

Tere,
Ma olen Kataloonias, I’m studying history and now I’m studying in Tartu University.
In the “democratic” and “european” Spain, they put a man in prison for 3 years, his fault was try to take off the Spanish flag of the town hall of Terrassa (a Catalan city near Barcelona). There is no eveidences against him, no one can say that he was there, there is no pictures or videos, nothing, but still he is in prison, and anyway, it is absolutely desproportionate condemnation even if he is “guilty”.
We are sereaching for support in external countries, so I would like to establish contact with you to explain everything better.
Aitäh!
“Until the lions don’t have their own historians, the history will continue glorifying to the hunters.”
This is hardly a suprise after the relativley recent publication of Putin’s new “History” text book for schools that attempts to justify the actions of Soviet Moscow!
