BBC: Ukraine war: Auschwitz anniversary marked without Russia
For the first time a Russian delegation was not invited to a ceremony marking the liberation of the former Auschwitz-Birkenau Nazi death camp in modern-day Poland.
Russia is usually represented at the event, as the camp in occupied Poland was liberated by the Soviet Army.
But this year, following Moscow's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, the Auschwitz-Birkenau museum declined to invite Russian officials and its director likened the Ukraine war to the horrors of the Holocaust.
In response, Russia accused the museum of attempting to "rewrite history".

Update #2: Auschwitz liberation marked without Russia, as European peace again shattered by war (Times of Israel)
WNU Editor: My father served in the Soviet Army during the war, and on two occasions he visited two camps a few days after they were liberated. He told me that what he will always remember is the smell of both places. Needless to say a lot of Red Army soldiers were killed liberating these camps, and many who died in these camps were also Slavs.
And now we have this. 78 years later the Polish PM accusing Russia of building new camps .... On Holocaust Day, Polish PM Accuses Putin Of Building 'New Camps' (AFP).

The red army did not liberate but conquer. Russians are not welcome in Poland, just like germans
That is not right. If it wasn't for Russia we would of lost everything..
The Auschwitz-Birkenau museum leadership are probably a bunch of progressive liberal ideologies. Why do we think this......
The ingratitude of this action. I don't like the soviets, never have, but you give the devil his due. And this Museum organization ....they suck.
Very true, considering how things went and are going after the fact, the German and Russians would have been better off working together. Germany being destroyed from within by bad immigration standards and liberalism and Russia being destroyed by lideralsm from the outside. This world is screwed and like it or not, Russia has become the last light of hope for the side of good. “A New Hope” if you will
Where's Stalin when you need him? oh yah, same place as Kruchev. Hint-it's very hot lol
anybody see this

THE RUSSIANS ARE BUILDING NEW CAMPS.
THE RUSSIANS also massacred Warsaw in 1944. The Poles have not forgotten.
OMG you must have lost your mind

YES!! I heard this too!
Ghost of Kiev caught the construction on his jet's nose camera.
Our Glorious Ukrainian government leadership under the helm of the ever righteous hand of the exalted Zelinski has proclaimed it so.
ONLY the craven Revisionist Putin enthralled stooges will not believe!!! May the people curse them and the earth reject their bones!!!
SLAVA,,!! SLAVA. Crimea by Christmas!
I have not lost my mind. You have lost your morals.
The Russians got to Warsaw and just sat and waited until the Poles and Germans were done fighting.
That is massacre by omission.
RUSSIA is #GUILTY
"The Home Army offensive began in the afternoon of August 1, 1944. The uprising was expected to last about a week and was seen largely as a “mopping-up” operation. This turned out to be a miscalculation. The Germans decided to make a stand and defend “fortress” Warsaw as the Soviets halted their offensive. The uprising lasted not one but nine weeks
The Warsaw Uprising failed because of lack of support from the Soviets and British and American unwillingness to demand that Stalin extend assistance to their Polish ally. The Soviet advance in Poland stopped on the Vistula River, within sight of fighting Warsaw.
Simply put, the Soviets had no interest in assisting the Home Army to liberate Warsaw. The Soviets were planning to annex the eastern half of Poland, first occupied in 1939 under the provisions of the Molotov-Ribbentrop agreement, and to exercise control over the rest. The Western Allies had secretly agreed to these points at the conference in Teheran in December 1943. "

"Soviet troops “liberated” Warsaw in January 1945, Poland’s capital was a vast desert of hollow-shelled buildings and rubble."
The Soviets (Russians) could have liberated Warsaw in September, October, November, or December.
Russian logistics were not that bad. Not with all the trucks and jeeps the Americans shipped to Russia
Plenty of guilt all around,. Americans too.
Timid, dumb ass FDR would not even send a sharply worded protest.
"In the end, the Allies did virtually nothing. FDR even turned down Winston Churchill’s suggestion for a strongly worded joint request to Stalin for help."
Yes that old Georgian Uncle Joe was a crafty one. Worthy of emulation.
Here's a good one right up uncle Joe's ally.
We pump huge amounts of propaganda money into the neighbor of our targeted enemy. Then once we have formented hate and fear of the neighbor, we stage a coup and put our people in place.
Then we have our puppet make all kinds of laws against the ethnic citizens who live in our country to try and provoke our target. This goes on for years until the targeted neighbor finally loses patience and attacks.
Then we sit back and watch while the puppet state and the target kill each other.
Yes. The spirit of uncle Joe in Poland lives on.
So sad.. to be this ignorant of history is astonishing. Obviously your hatred for Russia is blinding .
So Ruzzian troll factory cannot answer why the Russian army sat its butt for 4 months, while the Germans cleared Warsaw. We are talking Polish history here and dab of Russian history.
.Listen you ukie stooge. I did explain it. SOVIET leadership, uncle Joe. , a Georgian, decided to let his current enemies and so called allies kill each other so he could save his army and weaken his future enemy... the poles
Yes he used his allies for his own ends, The poles did his dirty work
Don't see the parrelles to the current ukie russian battle do you...you idiot.
If you cannot see that, you must really be dense
future enemies ... wow you are a fuck.
A lot of good Russian boys are dying for no good reason thanks to Putin. If you died, it would be a good thing.
