Transcripts
if we write about Russia and rasism we
must start by writing about its entire
history let's recall novarad T Kazan
asran
Siberia everything that happened in
Russia's history in modern international
legal terms is Gen side this is
rasism I believe the uniqueness of this
book Lies in its ability to help answer
one question what is rasism as the
quintessence of Russian nationalism
chauvinism Nazism racial discrimination
and all other things that today are
characterized as
genocide in the case of rasism we see a
repetition of the global European
mistake of failing to recognize an
authoritarian totalitarian destructive
ideology at its Inception leading to
severe consequences later
on it wasn't just Europe that failed to
recognize what rasism was many of us in
Ukraine initially perceived it as
something much simpler it is crucial
today that we document and actively
participate in addressing the
manifestations of
rasism indeed the history of rasism is a
history of social violence from the
oprichnina to Jewish pograms from the
destruction of Ukrainian intelligencia
to the
hore this is a historical phenomenon a
continuity inherent in the ethnic group
known as
Russians stalinism hasn't disappeared
nor has Russian fascism it remained
latent until the 21st century and found
fertile ground with Putin's rise to
power Russian fascism present since the
19th century persists in both
organizational and ideological
principles the ideological roots that
underpin modern Russian fascism go much
deeper into
history Oban rasism does not mean we can
simply prohibit it to ban rasism means
understanding the meanings conveyed by
this ideology this social practice and
this way of behavior much in this world
depends on how people behave therefore
we must understand not only the essence
of racism itself but also our behavior
and actions over many centuries
concerning
it as a wise man once wrote the past we
do not remember the past we forget can
inevitably come back to us with
overwhelming Force to prevent this we
must learn some patterns of that return
which could engulf us repeatedly over
time the fourth generation always
repeats the First I write that Putin did
not learn the lessons of the past but so
did us the most important thing is that
National Unity is not formed through
preferences or the destruction of one by
another National Unity is formed through
the commonality of worldview the
stronger we are in our worldview
compared to our competitors the better
we will be able to resist anything that
may come our
way rasism concerning Ukraine has always
been and Remains the extermination of
Ukrainian culture language and
everything that set us apart from others
we were labeled the malosi cooles and
immediately placed in the second class
told we were peasants and clearly
designated our place under the sun
referring to the Russian
Empire why are we so foolish why are we
so poor why are we ideologically
oppressed people where do the roots of
this hatred come from from this nation
that for so long called us Brothers The
Roots lie in their history and if we
speak of Nazism what is happening in
Russia Today is Elementary
Nazism now we are living in the
conditions of the world World War II
when the World War I first occurred the
rasist of the early 20th century wanted
to solve the Ukrainian question once and
for
all back then the racists wanted to
solve the Ukrainian question
definitively to put an end to
Ukrainian one of the reasons for their
involvement in the Great War World War I
1 was to eradicate masaism to eliminate
the Ukrainian pedmont to end Ukrainian
both spiritually and
physically let's remember that
everything Ukrainian was
destroyed you know Ukrainian historians
always tell us why did we lose they
explain the reasons for our defeats I
think this war must end differently we
will explain to our Descendants the
reasons for our
Victory from 1933 to 1939 destroyed
10,000 of his opponents while the
stalinist regime from 1918 to 193 39
killed over 15 million ukrainians
alone Putin is repeating the ideas of
Lenin and Stalin their policies their
actions communo fascism acted against
ukrainians during the second world war
specifically the brutal mobilization of
15 to 17year old children and teenagers
to the front over 300,000 mobilized who
were thrown into battle without training
or weapons the stalinist regime team
claiming victory for itself forgets that
ukrainians fought geographically in the
Red Army more than Russians imagine the
territory of the Russian Federation and
compare it to the territory of Ukraine
much
smaller what is happening now after
February 24th is also an event of global
historical significance because the
world has trembled the world has
awakened the global Community which was
dozing off especially the European
liberal community that thought it could
negotiate with the monster could Pat him
on the shoulder or have a 17-hour phone
conversation like Mr mcon did with the
head of this fascist State formation
this delusion has now fallen away it has
become clear that evil cannot be dealt
with diplomatically it cannot be
negotiated with as was the case in 2008
the first powerful manifestation of this
rasism in the example of
Georgia and when the blitz Creek's teeth
were knocked out by our armed forces and
territorial Defense Forces the world
realized what Ukraine is
