Mironov calls for a legal base to counteract heroization of Nazism collaborators

Fight against Nazism Heroization 


Speaking in a tele-bridge ‘Moscow-Minsk-Kiev-Chisinau,’ devoted to the commemorations of the 65th anniversary of the Great Victory, Federation Council Chairman Sergei Mironov called for the adoption of a legal base to counteract attempts to legalize Nazism collaborators. I should note that, unfortunately, we have been forced to introduce norms to the Criminal Code that provide for prosecution of persons convicted of rehabilitation of Nazism and conscious distortion of the WWII results,” he added. “This is because there are people today, who are trying to turn USSR into an aggressor, while whitewashing fascism. 


This is absolutely not acceptable.” Mironov says the proposed steps on strengthening efforts against rehabilitation of Nazis are forced, but absolutely necessary measures. “It is nice to note that these initiatives are supported by the legislators in the other CIS republics, and this means that we can adopt some ‘model laws’ on this issue.”
