Ambassador: Germany does not renounce responsibility for its attack on USSR
Germany unconditionally recognises its responsibility for the attack on the Soviet Union in World War II, and Berlin is not going to rewrite history – as stated by the German Ambassador to Russia, Alexander Graf Lambsdorff, TASS reports
The diplomat stressed that the war of conquest by Nazi Germany was a blatant, unforgivable crime against international law. “Germany is responsible for the outbreak of World War II, including the attack on the USSR. My country unconditionally recognises this responsibility. The suggestions voiced from time to time that we want to rewrite history and renounce responsibility are incorrect,” he said at the Siege of Leningrad in Mirror of Modern Diaries and Documents event organised by the German Embassy in co-operation with the German Historical Institute in Moscow.
