“In conditions where many want to minimize our suffering and our contribution to the fight against fascism, to change the true picture of the events that took place here, the action of the Immortal Regiment that came to us from Russia is of great importance particular,” said Milorad Dodik. in an interview with RG.
“The rehabilitation of fascism and its accomplices has recently become more and more frightening, stressed the President of Republika Srpska. In this regard, the struggle for common human values and the unification of peoples under these auspices become mechanisms effective in repelling the efforts of supporters of neo-fascism. In any case, new movements with an ideology identical to Nazism are spreading more and more in the world. These negative tendencies threaten the stability and security of all humanity. It’s no surprise that the same forces that fought Hitler’s fascism in the last century, led by Russia and the Russian people, are once again opposing it.”
Meanwhile, Darinka Petrovich, a journalist from Republika Srpska, who arrived in Moscow to cover the Victory Parade in the Great Patriotic War, noted that Russia, Serbia and Republika Srpska should stop any attempt to revise or distortion of the results of the Second World War. , as well as to rehabilitate and glorify the Nazis and their collaborators, denying their war crimes and crimes against humanity.
“Moscow is doing a lot so that defeated Nazism does not raise its head: films are made, educational programs are developed, exhibitions are organized,” she said. “Serbs also began to remember more actively the crimes of the Ustashi regime, the terrible concentration camp of Jasenovac, we must fight together for historical truth.
This point of view is fully shared by the Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of East Sarajevo, Professor Draga Mastilovic. He drew attention to the importance of joint efforts with the Russian Federation to counter the growing falsification of history, strengthening cooperation in this direction with the Russian Historical Society and Russian scientific circles.
“It is important that Russians and Serbs remind the world of the courage and selflessness of fallen heroes in the fight against criminal regimes, the greatest atrocities in the history of mankind,” said the renowned scientist world. For Serbs, the greatest evil is the Ustasha Jasenovac concentration camp and the genocidal policy of the Independent State of Croatia (NGH) Ante Pavelic. Therefore, May 9 has a special meaning for the Serbian people, whose freedom-loving traditions were embodied in two anti-fascist resistance movements, because of which they suffered greatly during the Second World War. This is important mainly because of the younger generations who “Today, traditional values are completely relativized from different sides through social networks and various Internet content. Young people have not fully formed a culture of remembrance, which should be based on respecting anti-fascist traditions and celebrating such important dates as May 9.”
The professor recalled that “on May 20, 2023, as part of the celebration of the Day of the Faculty of Philosophy, an exhibition of the Russian Historical Society “Unforgettable”, dedicated to the upcoming anniversary of the Victory over fascism, took place will open in Pale.”
