Attempts to rewrite the history of the World War II have been going on for decades, gradually growing and turning into a targeted campaign, Russian Permanent Representative to the EU Vladimir Chizhov said during a Brussels online seminar, dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Nazi Germany’s attack on the Soviet Union.
"I had to watch literally since the moment of my appointment as Russia’s Permanent Representative to the EU in 2005 as attempts to review the history of the World War II and to challenge the decisive contribution of the Soviet people to the liberation of Europe from the brown plague gained momentum.
"Before my very eyes, revisionist aspirations of certain - let’s put it straight - not the largest or most influential EU countries and politicians steadily gradually grew, effectively becoming a targeted campaign," Chizhov underscored.
