Myths About World War II:

This myth, according to him, is dangerous and is used by Russia as a cover for its crimes. He emphasized that such myths create a negative perception of history and can have serious consequences for countries, including Ukraine.

«We should not forget that Russia helped us defeat Nazi Germany in World War II, losing almost 60 million lives in the process,» Vyatrovych quoted Donald Trump.

Another myth emphasized by the historian is that evil was somehow finally overcome in 1945. He points out that the modern world has the task of clarifying the truth about past events and not repeating mistakes. A correct understanding of history is important for maintaining peace and stability.
