Considering the number of Russians who died to put that flag on the Reichstag, this is not surprising.
The dead numbered 27 million last I heard.
Don’t you know, it wasn’t Russians, they had nothing to do with the Soviet Union, they were only its innocent victims. Europe was liberated by Georgians, Ukrainians and Balts.
That is the total Soviet population, and may be underestimated, based on archival research.
The number of Ukrainians killed is 10 million, plus another 2.5 million taken as slave labour, most of whom died in Germany.
About 600,000 died in the Baltics.
1 in 4 Belarussians were killed by the Germans - around 3.5 million.
About 6 million Russians died.
The balance are from the remaining Soviet republics.
