The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskysaid the Russian Foreign Minister’s suggestion, Sergei Lavrovthat the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler had Jewish origins showed that Moscow has forgotten, or never learned, the lessons of World War II.
“I have no words… No one has heard any denial or no justification from Moscow. All we have from there is silence… this means that the Russian leadership has forgotten all the lessons of World War II,” Zelensky, who is Jewish, said in his late-night video message.
“Or maybe they’ve never learned those lessons,” he said.
