Demolition of monument to Soviet soldiers in Klaipeda considered.

The Baltic neighbors do not leave attempts to rewrite history. In Klaipeda, the question of demolition of the monument to Soviet soldiers was put to a vote. It is about the memorial on the burial place of the soldiers. The local poll will last for a month.

Latvia

In Latvia law-enforcers have already opened 3 criminal and 20 administrative cases on the background of the scandal with the monument to the Liberators in Riga. All those who decided to honor the deed of the Soviet people were called criminals,  by the authorities  justifying the genocide. 

Russia

The cynicism reaching the point of absurdity caused a backlash. In Moscow, a line of those who want to lay flowers lined up in front of the Latvian embassy. Hundreds of people took part in a peculiar protest against the war on memory.
