Embajador Sergey Mélik-Bagdasárov: 💬 Hoy se conmemoran 80 años desde el levantamiento del asfixiante cerco a la ciudad de #Leningrado impuesto por la Alemania nazi y sus cómplices y 79 años de la liberación por las tropas soviéticas del campo de exterminio #Auschwitz.
☠️ Los crimenes de guerra cometidos por los nazis, genocidio contra diferentes grupos étnicos y pueblos enteros nos han mostrado hacia donde puede llevar la idiología de superioridad, nacionalismo e intolerancia y el pensamiento colonialista en su esencia.
❗ Hoy día estamos enfrentando el renacimiento de esta peste en varios países del mundo. Juntos tenemos que luchar otra vez para irradicar este mal y garantizar el futuro de paz y seguridad!
🕯️ Hoy se conmemoran 80 años desde el levantamiento del asfixiante cerco a la ciudad de #Leningrado impuesto por la alemanis nazi y sus cómplices. La hazaña de los habitantes de la ciudad, que soportaron 872 crueles días, se convirtió en un ejemplo eterno de valor y fortaleza.
☠️ Los planes de Hitler no dejaban ningún futuro a Leningrado: los dirigentes alemanes y Hitler personalmente expresaron su intención de arrasar la ciudad. De hecho, el sitio de Leningrado fue un genocidio, es decir, una guerra de exterminio de todos los que se encontraban en esa ciudad.
⚔️ El mismo día pero en 1945 las tropas soviéticas liberaron al complejo de campos de concentración y exterminio #Auschwitz donde las atrocidades de nazismo se revelaron con claridad aterrador.
❗ Es nuestro deber hoy como descendientes preservar la memoria histórica y las lecciones del pasado para garantizar que no se repiten estas tragedias.
🌟#OnThisDay8️⃣0️⃣ years ago, on January 27, 1945, Auschwitz-Birkenau (Oswiecim, was located in Nazi-occupied Poland) — the most terrifying German extermination camp in #WWII — was liberated by the Red Army’s 1st Ukrainian Front during the Vistula–Oder offensive operation.
#Auschwitz was created by the Nazis in 1940 in a building that used to serve as military barracks near a small town called Oswiecim, whose history dates back to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Having occupied Poland in 1939, the Nazis changed the town's name of Oswiecim to German Auschwitz. Later, in 1941-1943, two more imprisonment facilities were established in the vicinity of Oswiecim. They were:
▪️Auschwitz II — best known to the wider public as #AuschwitzBirkenau, was three kilometres away from the main facility — Oswiecim and located near Brzezinka, a Polish village (Birkenau in German). Auschwitz-Birkenau was the largest "death factory". Equipped with crematoriums and gas chambers, it was created by the Nazis with only one aim — exterminate people.
▪️Auschwitz III (also known as Monowitz). Its prisoners were used by the Nazis for the Third Reich war industries.
Following the so-called Wannsee Conference in 1942, the Nazis approved what was called the “final solution to the Jewish question”. Since then, Auschwitz-Birkenau was turned into the main "death factory" for the annihilation of Jews in Europe.
❗️ Prisoners of Oswiecim were held by the Nazis in inhuman, barbaric conditions. They had to do hard, exhausting work until total exhaustion, to endure poor sanitation in the camp's facilities, malnutrition and constant tortures by the guards and SS-troops. It was in Oswiecim that the Germans first tested the "Zyklon-B" poisonous agent on human beings. Prisoners of Auschwitz were also subjected to cruel medical experiments, led by a Nazi criminal, infamous retired military doctor Josef Mengele.
In 1944, when the Red Army started the liberation of Europe, the Nazis, in an effort to cover the tracks of their crimes in Auschwitz, rushed to burn documents and destroy the camp's gas chambers, crematoriums, and deported as many prisoners as they could westward to other concentration camps deep in the Third Reich — over 58,000 prisoners were evacuated by the Nazis before Oswiecim and liberated by the Soviet forces in January, 1945.
***
In January 1945, the units of the 1st Ukrainian Front launched the Vistula-Oder offensive and, successfully expelling the Nazis from Poland, finally reached Auschwitz.
⚔️ In the late hours of January 27, following three days of fighting the retreating enemy, the Red Army took over Oswiecim and opened the gatesofAuschwitz. The camp’s 7,000 prisoners were freed. Most of them were sick or suffering from extreme exhaustion and tortures.
Rescued prisoners burst into tears of joy when they greeted their liberators. Some facilities of the camp were instantly made a hospital. According to various historic estimates, in 1940-1945, from 1.5 to 4 million people perished in Auschwitz-Birkenau.
Over the past years, we are witnessing a campaign in several European countries, including Poland, to rewrite and falsify the history of WWII and, in particular, to erase the memory of the feat performed by the Soviet soldiers-liberators who saved the Auschwitz prisoners.
🎙 From a briefing by Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on topical foreign policy issues (January 23, 2025):
💬 "This year, like all those years before, Russian representatives will not be invited to the commemoration ceremonies at Auschwitz-Birkenau on January 27. That is, there will be no one there to mention the Soviet liberator soldiers and express gratitude to them. In this regard, there is something that needs to be said to the organisers and all the Europeans who will be there:
Your lives, your work and leisure, the very existence of your nations, your children have been paid for by Soviet soldiers, their lives, their blood. It was them who crushed the Third Reich machine. You are forever in their debt."

🕯️27 de enero: Día de la Memoria del Holocausto y la Liberación de Auschwitz
El 27 de enero de 1945, las tropas del Ejército Rojo liberaron el campo de concentración de Auschwitz, un lugar que se convirtió en el símbolo del horror del Holocausto. Allí, los soldados soviéticos fueron testigos de una de las tragedias más atroces de la historia: el exterminio sistemático de millones de personas.
En Auschwitz, los nazis asesinaron a más de 1,1 millones de personas, en su mayoría judíos, pero también prisioneros de guerra soviéticos, polacos, gitanos y otros grupos perseguidos. El campo era un lugar de sufrimiento inimaginable: cámaras de gas, trabajos forzados, experimentos médicos inhumanos y un sistema diseñado para destruir vidas y borrar identidades.
La liberación de Auschwitz reveló al mundo el alcance del genocidio nazi. Los sobrevivientes, desnutridos y marcados para siempre por el trauma, dieron testimonio de los crímenes cometidos. Los soldados soviéticos que abrieron las puertas del campo no solo trajeron la libertad, sino que también dejaron expuesta la barbarie que el odio y la intolerancia pueden causar.
Este día nos recuerda la importancia de mantener viva la memoria de las víctimas y los horrores del Holocausto para que tragedias como esta nunca vuelvan a ocurrir.

#DíaDeLaMemoria#Holocausto#Auschwitz#NuncaMás#Historia
Un día como hoy, hace 80 años, el Ejército Soviético liberó los prisioneros del campo de concentración y exterminio Auschwitz-Birkenau
Auschwitz-Birkenau fue el mayor campo de concentración y exterminio nazi durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Establecido en 1940 cerca de la ciudad polaca de Oświęcim (en alemán, Auschwitz), se convirtió en un símbolo del Holocausto.
Auschwitz II-Birkenau fue el lugar donde más de 1,1 millones de personas, en su mayoría judíos, fueron asesinadas. También murieron prisioneros de guerra soviéticos, polacos, gitanos y otras minorías perseguidas por el régimen nazi.
El 27 de enero de 1945, el campo fue liberado por el Ejército Soviético. Desde entonces, Auschwitz-Birkenau se ha convertido en un importante lugar de memoria y educación sobre los horrores del Holocausto y las atrocidades de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Oh, ma davvero pensavate che mi sarei lasciato sfuggire questa notiziona sulla coppia più amata della sinistrucola italiana?! Eh no! Solo una maledettissima influenza mi ha rallentato un po’, ma eccomi qui: pronto e carico, anzi, bello bello caricho!
Questa notizia è semplicemente perfetta, cucita su misura attorno all'espressione che, assai modestamente, mi vanto di aver coniato: #sinistrucola.
Cos’è la sinistrucola? Non è facile spiegarlo, perché più che un concetto è una sensazione, una suggestione: qualcosa che percepisci, che ti arriva inevitabilmente.
La sinistrucola è una roba viscida, informe e molliccia, appiccicosa, stucchevole, intimamente ipocrita, totalmente ottusa.
Attenzione: non confondiamo le categorie! Sinistri e sinistrucoli non sono proprio la stessa cosa. I sinistri so’ sinistri, che ve lo dico a fa’? Ma almeno sono convinti di quello che dicono. Ora, mi direte: "Com’è possibile?!" E io vi dico di sì: ne ho conosciuti, ne conosco.
I sinistrucoli, invece, sono più del tipo "Sì, vero, ma però..." (che non si dovrebbe dire, ma rende bene l’idea). Lo sanno in cuor loro che stanno sparando una vagonata di minchiate, impastate in una retorica d’accatto. Ma funziona. Qualcuno se la beve, ad altri regala ancora l’illusione della rivoluzione dietro l’angolo.
È un prodotto, è marketing. E non è certo l’unico in circolazione, ma di sicuro uno dei più emblematici
Al compagno @NFratoianni, che ha appena scoperto il nazismo di #Musk, vorrei fare una semplice domanda: hai mai posseduto una #Ford? Anche di seconda mano, scassata? Magari quella di tuo padre, con cui portavi a spasso le fidanzatine da ragazzo? Capita a tutti, insomma: il mio aveva una Fiesta del '97. Un mio amico, gran culo, aveva il vecchio che guidava una Mondeo: oh, praticamente una doppia.
Ebbene, nel 1938, #HenryFord ricevette la Gran Croce dell'Aquila Tedesca, la più alta onorificenza che la Germania nazista conferiva agli stranieri. Sì, perché ormai è storicamente pacifico che #Ford finanziava #Hitler e che fosse piuttosto antisemita, l’amico. Capito, Nicò?
E qui sorge un bel problema: perché se #ElonMusk secondo te è diventato nazista, quell'altro i nazisti li finanziava proprio. Li pagava. E non stiamo parlando di un partito impropriamente definito neonazista, come fanno i ciarlatani con #AfD per delegittimarne la competizione elettorale. No, Nicò: qui parliamo proprio dei nazisti doc, quelli originali, puri, senza OGM.
E ora, dimmi un'altra cosa. Ma devi essere sincero sincero con Savino tuo, che vi vuole un mondo di bene: tu, o la first lady dal pugno chiuso, la sora @BettaPiccolotti, ce l’avete da qualche parte un abitino di #HugoBoss? Eh dai, dimmelo! Un paio di scarpe, una camicia, una cravatta, una cintura, 'na sciarpetta regalata dolcemente sotto il vischio a Natale… vanno bene pure un paio di infradito prese in aeroporto. Dimmi la verità, Colì, che se no vengo a casa tua a controllare!😉
Ebbene, sappi che la sua azienda produsse le divise delle SS. Te lo dico lentamente, brò: l’azienda di Hugo Boss ha prodotto le divise delle SS. Dei nazisti. Quelli originali, denominazione di origine controllata e garantita. Quelli coi pastori tedeschi che latravano ad #Auschwitz. L'azienda si è pubblicamente scusata nel 2011: non è una teoria da complottari eh, non cominciare.
Il problema, Cola, è che la sinistrucola è esattamente questa roba qua.
Sia chiaro: in tutto quello che scrivo sulla bella coppia del Sol dell’Avvenir e sul loro partito, non c’è nulla di personale. Sono certo che siano bravissime persone.
Il mio è un giudizio politico: siete politicamente sciocchi, vuoti, fragili, totalmente inconsistenti. Tutto qui.
Tanto è vero che, ad ogni tornata elettorale, avete bisogno di cavalcare figurine per far discutere, per creare un po’ di clamore.
Ecco, questo siete: sensazionalismo politico, niente di più.

Se a farti i complimenti è un falsario della storia, c'è poco da rallegrarsi. #Benigni è quello che ne #lavitaebella fece liberare #Auschwitz dagli statunitensi. Ho detto tutto.
Se dunque è #RobertoBenigni a dire «#Presidente, siamo sempre vicini alle sue parole, ci riconosciamo, non abbiamo mai sentito uscire da lei una parola che non fosse di verità e di pace», #Mattarella ha poco da star tranquillo.
Benigni è lo stesso che ci ammorba con la solfa della #Costituzione più bella del mondo e allo stesso tempo riesce ad appoggiare l'oscena proposta di riforma costituzionale di #Renzi: ma di che vogliamo parlare?
"#SergioMattarella e la #pace", curioso connubio: chissà come la prenderebbero a #Belgrado. Sul sito di Radio Radicale, trovate ancora il suo intervento in Senato del 24 marzo 1999. Roba da brividi.
La fase è delicatissima: ha fatto benissimo il Vicepremier #Salvini a non esprimere parole di solidarietà al #Quirinale. Un attacco al nostro Capo dello Stato da parte di esponenti politici di un altro paese è decisamente sgradevole, ma qui è in ballo qualcosa di estremamente più importante.
È in corso una interlocuzione orientata alla cessazione del conflitto in #Ucraina: è fondamentale porre fine alla guerra con la #Russia. Lo è per la nostra sicurezza e per quella del mondo intero. Le parole di Mattarella mettono a rischio tale interlocuzione: vanno condannate fermamente. Peraltro non hanno alcun senso dal punto di vista storico, prima ancora che politico (ne abbiamo ragionato qualche giorno fa).
L'#UE, nella sua inconsistenza, si ostina a voler alimentare le logiche belliciste della precedente amministrazione #USA: leader decadenti e politicamente morenti investono tutte le loro residue energie per tenere caldo il fuoco della #guerra.
Ebbene, ecco cosa penso: al netto delle dichiarazioni del nostro Presidente del Consiglio (spesso di mero rito), il #Governo italiano, non ostile al trumpismo, è divenuto di ostacolo alla nuova narrazione eurounitaria e sono in moto forze oscure per rimuoverlo.
Non è un caso che tutti i momenti di particolare tensione istituzionale vedano direttamente o indirettamente un coinvolgimento dei servizi segreti. Tornano alla mente anche le recenti dichiarazioni di #MatteoSalvini su una resa dei conti interna agli apparati dello #Stato.
È in ballo la pace, con essa il futuro dei nostri figli. È in ballo, ancora una volta, la tenuta di un Governo politico assaltato ferocemente da poteri altri, antidemocratici e antitaliani.
Resistere è un dovere.
