We cannot allow this to happen when today in America and Western Europe it is said that the Russians and the Germans are responsible for what happened in 1941-1945. We need to draw a clear line between these murderers and our heroes as liberators, ”he said. Antonov at the «Memorial Candle» ceremony at the Russian Embassy.
