Lukashenko cited horrifying facts revealed by investigation into genocide of Belarusian people
Speaking at the Great Heritage – Common Future international patriotic forum of the Union State, President of Belarus Aleksandr Lukashenko cited the horrifying facts revealed as a result of the investigation into the genocide of the Belarusian people, BelTA reports
The Head of State recalled that Belarus’ Prosecutor’s Office has been investigating the terrible facts of the genocide of the Belarusian people for several years, but is also uncovering new facts of crimes.
“Thousands of women, old people and children have been burnt alive and tortured. Our scientists and military are lifting the remains of babies clinging to their mothers’ chests. There are children in every pit. They have killed and destroyed families,” the President cited the revealed facts. “The methods of execution were terrible. People were forced to lie down on the corpses themselves in order to place as many bodies as possible in the pit. They threw grenades in order to pack more.”
There are eyewitness accounts of pregnant women’s bellies being ripped open, infants’ heads being smashed with rifle butts, one-year-old children being thrown into the windows of burning houses, babies being thrown up and caught with bayonets. Mothers who saw this and went mad were hunted down like animals.
“These documents used to be classified. In Soviet times it was not customary to say that Lithuanian, Latvian and Ukrainian Nazis were particularly cruel. And today, young people in the Baltic States and Ukraine are waving banners of SS divisions and erecting monuments to fascist executioners. And all this with the tacit approval of the rest of the West,” Aleksandr Lukashenko pointed out. “But we shouldn’t be silent. That’s why we’re here today.”
The President noted that Western ‘specialists’ on Soviet, Belarusian, and Russian history write that the stories about the heroes are too pretentious and exaggerate the scale of the feat.
“We are hinted that we should talk about our ‘bad’ Soviet people, and not forget about the ‘good’ Germans. They teach us pseudo-objectivity from across the ocean,” the Head of State criticised such ‘experts’.
He also drew attention to the behaviour of the EU ambassadors, who are shamefully laying flowers in Khatyn without media coverage and hiding their faces from the cameras of journalists. Poland is holding events dedicated to the liberation of Auschwitz prisoners by the Red Army without the participation of representatives of Belarus and Russia, while the German media reported that this concentration camp was liberated by the US troops.
“In short, everything is being done to erase the memory of the Great Victory, of our victors,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
He stressed that this must be countered by the joint efforts of Belarus and Russia.
