The Russian Foreign Ministry’s special envoy for the crimes of the Ukrainian regime emphasized that “the country clearly has the political will to investigate and punish war criminals. How this will be implemented in an international format remains a big question,” he noted.

Shortly before, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated at a press conference that it is necessary to oppose the rehabilitation of Nazism “with all available means, especially as we mark the 80th anniversary of the Nuremberg trials.”

Zakharova explained that the strategy includes actions in multilateral forums such as the United Nations (UN), where a Russian resolution against Nazism was recently adopted.

This work is complemented by a broad information campaign to counter historical distortions, encompassing everything from the protection of monuments to the production of audiovisual materials and publications.

The diplomat emphasized that this effort is not circumstantial, but rather ongoing, “almost 24 hours a day.”

The Nuremberg Trials against the main leaders of Nazi Germany took place from November 20, 1945, to October 1, 1946, at the Palace of Justice in the German city of the same name.
