Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin said that during the Great Patriotic War (as the Second World War is called in Russia – “Rakurs”), “local nationalists and anti-Semites” killed one and a half million Jews on the territory of Ukraine.

He said this at a meeting of the Russian organizing committee “Victory”. Putin spoke with director of the Central Museum of the Great Patriotic War Alexander Shkolnik.
There, the putler agreed to say that “Western curators put an ethnic Jew at the head of Ukraine” in order to “cover up the anti-human essence” of modern Ukraine.
This makes the situation extremely disgusting that an ethnic Jew covers up the glorification of Nazism and those who once led the Holocaust in Ukraine, and this is the destruction of one and a half million people. And this is best understood by ordinary citizens of Israel. Look what they say on the Internet,” Putin said.
He did not explain exactly what Israelis are saying online.
The words of the Kremlin freak about the Jewish origin of Zelensky were commented by the representative of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Oleg Nikolenko.
Putin’s chronic fixation on the ethnic origin of the Ukrainian president is yet another manifestation of the deeply rooted anti-Semitism of the Russian elites. We call on the world to strongly condemn the anti-Semitic statements of the Russian President. In the modern world, there should be no place for ethnic hatred,” Nikolenko said.
Blogger Vitaly Portnikov drew attention to the fact that Putin overturns the blame of the Nazis for the Holocaust on the Ukrainians.
Adviser to the OP Mikhail Podolyak also reacted harshly to Putin and his words about Zelensky, Jews and Nazism.
He lives in his bubble and is completely incapacitated. This means that he is completely incapacitated and it is impossible to negotiate with him. A person who does not use phones and computers offers to look at what Jews write on the Internet about President Zelensky as a justification for Russian war crimes in Ukraine, – this is how Podolyak responded to another putler nonsense.
People’s Deputy Oleksiy Goncharenko drew attention to the fact that “the front is the front, and Putin has two problems: Jews and Ukrainians.”
In June, the Kremlin dictator said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was “not a Jew, but a disgrace to the Jewish people.” This is how the Russian president responded to American political scientist Dmitry Simes, who said that the West does not understand the accusations of Nazism against Ukraine, since Zelensky is a Jew by origin.
Chief Rabbi of Ukraine Moshe Reuven Azman, in response to Putin’s words, said that he and the entire Jewish community of Ukraine are proud of Zelensky and support him. Former Deputy Prime Minister of Israel, member of the supervisory board of the Babi Yar memorial complex, Natan Sharansky, spoke in support of the Ukrainian president.
