Ajouter "Do Belarusians remember? / Genocide, death camps, and Europe’s answers | AFTER THE FACT"

In April 2021 the Prosecutor General’s Office opened a criminal case to investigate the genocide of Belarus’ population during the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 and in the post-war period. One could wonder why the country would need it since heroic deeds of every soldier, who died during that dreadful war, are already honored. But where did extremists and neo-Nazis appear from on Belarusian streets in August 2020? Fake news made people go crazy so much that the country stood on the brink of chaos. Social networks and instant messaging apps were all the rage. Nazism and fascism reared their ugly heads and someone decided to place in doubt the sacred victory of the Soviet people during the Great Patriotic War.
