Only 3% of Russian territory got occupied by the Nazis while 100% of Ukrainian and Belarusian territory did.
It is they who remember. That is why Ukrainians remember "never again" and Russians say "we may repeat".

Vladimir Putin held an impressive march this past May 9 in Russia's counterpart of VE (Victory in Europe) Day as reported here and elsewhere.
It was a false spectacle, as the Second World War was not won by the government of the USSR, which did its best to lose it. It was won by the United States, United Kingdom, ANZAC, the Free French, the Polish Resistance, other Allied nations, and ordinary Russians and Ukrainians whose lives were squandered by incompetent leaders who stayed as far as they could from actual combat.
Russians and Ukrainians who suffered by the millions while their "leaders" dined on lavish meals and caviar in Moscow were indeed heroes. The Night Witches were women who volunteered to fly relatively primitive aircraft to bomb Axis positions at night. Ukrainian-born Lyudmila Pavlichenko, also known as Lady Death, could have had a non-combat position as a nurse but wanted instead to fight the Axis on the front lines where she disposed of 309 enemies. She was among the one out of every four female snipers who survived the war. These ordinary Ukrainians and Russians deserve the same respect we accord American, British, ANZAC, and other veterans of the war against the worst evil the world has ever known.
Victory Day is otherwise stolen valor on the part of the USSR's and the Russian Federation's governments. The USSR ended up on the winning side in spite of rather than because of its conduct prior to and during the war.
Here are some of the reasons why:

We could probably say the same thing about American politicians who wear flag lapel pins instead of the badges of their corporate sponsors.

>That is why Ukrainians remember “never again”
Tell that to the Azov battalion
Putin is not a military man,he is a deep state civilian KGB glorified cop-sheister attorney.
I am willing to bet that we have the same types in our government. Mueller’s FBI after all was all too happy to hire the FSB after 911, same FSB that we all know hired Al Zwahiri….
These people, these globalist psyops manipulators of intentions, consider themselves the winners of the war. Why do you think Putin calls Ukrainians and the West Nazis?
This is to feed the same rhetoric that liberal political elites and the KGB’d CIA fed during the Vietnam war calling military men “baby killers”. Because Putin himself distanced himself by calling hypocritically his operation a civilian special police operation, arming his soldiers with riot rubber bullets.
Yet, what do we hear from the CIA or FBI despite all the “war crime” hues and cries? NOTHING!!! While Estonians and even French cops come to Ukraine to do forensics, FBI stays kushy and is all too happy to let Putin win the game of perception. Why? Because the Biden Admin Jan6 overtaking of power with the FBI are traitors who hate the military, hate the United atates and hate themselves as the Obama currently shadow ruling the deep state hates himself.
Not only does Putin steal the valor, but also and more importantly, THE VIRTUE SIGNALING, and ONLY BECAUSE the CIa, FBI and deep state let him!
Proof is that Putin’s daughter works for mRNA research with civilian biolab cop FBi outfits. The Ukraine biolabs were not meant to build pathogens for war, they were a PoliticallyCorrect ‘gunshow loophole” for the civilian FBi/CDC to wage biowar on the people with thr help of other frontmen civilian bilionaires working for Chicom such as Bill Gates.
Azov battalion is heroes. They had a dark start because when Russia invaded in 2014 the military of Ukraine was in shambles. Stopping the Russian invasion depended on volunteers and the first to fight were various angry young men like soccer hooligans and other radicals, quite a few of them some sort of nazis.
That was 8 years ago and by now Azov is a unit in the official military. Radicals were purged from the leadership. Grunts were allowed to stay because it is an existential fight for Ukraine and it is about war not politics.
By now Azov is a unit that has the reputation of having the most hardcore fighters. Radicals are a minority there.
Las but not least, this stolen valor with virtue signaling of Putin against “Nazis” is a narrative shaping method that our government cooperates with.
They want NUCLEAR WAR, but they want to blame the military, the “Nazis” for it, and the egotistic paranoid psychopaths like Bill Gates want to be the winners and virtue signalers of it, acting like they did nothing and were for peace and cowering for the Chicoms and KGB.
They do not want to be blamed for their fascist treachery, nope, regular people and their sons and daughters in military uniforms will be blamed as the Nazis.
That is Putin’s “BAIT”. Putin gave himself also an out, with the special operation term, a diplomatic out in case it does not work out, one I am 100% sure the State Department is using to fully cooperate with him in the repeat attempts by Biden and his feckless schizo puppets like Macron to make negotiation’s with Putin the way he did with Iran.
All conflicts are used to prop up these regimes via fake peace deals and traitor moves.
Disingenuous and misleading. Now show us a map of where the population was back then. Idiotic to pretend that Russia didn’t suffer an unimaginable catastrophe in WWII. Also there was no nation of “Ukraine” In WWII. THE Ukraine and Belarussia were both areas of the Russian empire for centuries before the USSR came along.
Azov is nazi and a decent person hopes every single one starves. No excuses.
They really did a number on you.
The KGB plan of “Demoralization” was supposed to catch commie kids, but ended up catching thoroughly demoralized conservatives.
In postmodernist fashion you don’t care about the truth anymore because anyone can make their own truth.
You’re shilling for the disgusting post-re-commie regime of bloody Putin. The abortion champion of the world. The country without an ounce of freedom.
You’re a god damn useful idiot!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacres_of_Poles_in_Volhynia_and_Eastern_Galicia
The Ukrainian attacks on Poles during the massacres in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia were marked with extreme sadism and brutality. Rape, torture and mutilation were commonplace. Poles were burned alive, flayed, impaled, crucified, disembowelled, dismembered and beheaded. Women were gang raped and had their breasts sliced off, children were hacked to pieces with axes, babies were impaled on bayonets and pitchforks or bashed against trees.
What does Poland do?
I know. They’re sending huge amounts of weapons to Ukraine.
You here pretend to be VERY offended on behalf of the Poles and THEY tell you to stick your Russian propaganda where the sun doesn’t shine!
Maybe Poland should be telling Ukraine to work on a peace treaty and ceasefire instead of throwing fuel on a fire
“ Tell that to the Azov battalion.”
They were stuck between Nazis and Communists. And the Communists had just starved about 6 million Ukrainians to death.
What would you have done, smart guy?
L
Well the US during ww2 fought the nazis while being allied with the USSR so your argument is moot
Um, no it isn’t.
L
Actually it is
I’ll ask again. What would you have done?
L
The better request is we should do nothing, since doing nothing would have prevented all this from happening
