(English) Appeal of the Russian Union of Veterans (RUV) to peoples, veterans and all antifascist forces – forces of good will in the world
22. April 2018
For RUV, veterans of Russia of all generations, the sudden massive missile strike inflicted by the NATO clique led by the US on April 14 at 4.00 Moscow time on the objects of Syria vividly revived the historical memory on June 22, 1941, when also at 4.00 the fascist regime of Hitler suddenly attacked the Soviet Union, and the blood of innocent civilians, children and the elderly of our people was shed.
May be, the US population has saved its history from such bloody trials, and even in some European countries even veterans, obviously, began to forget about these facts. But for us, veterans of the country which smashed fascism, we cannot forget the history. The current leaders at the helm of the United States, Britain and France, in fact are the continuers of the ideas of fascism, the exclusivity of one’s own nation, which, at their will, is allowed to create lawlessness and shed blood of innocent people anywhere in the world. Now, any country on the planet Earth must understand that at any moment it can also be under such a sudden blow, according to a completely invented proposal, which has nothing to do with reality.
Veterans of Russia, behind whom have been the hardest trials of the Great Patriotic and World War II, the defense of our country’s interests in civil wars and armed conflicts, and in the years of the Cold War, ensuring the nuclear and military parity of our country with the entire «NATO coalition» are more sensitive than other layers of the world’s population, and feel a threat to the security of Russia and all progressive mankind, caused by international terrorism, the policy of various embargoes and sanctions carried out by Western countries led by the United States.
Veterans of Russia fully share the position of our President, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, who called the attack an act of aggression against a sovereign state, a violation of the norms of the UN Charter and the principles of international law. The US «by its actions» further aggravates the humanitarian catastrophe in Syria, brings suffering to the peaceful population, in fact, indulges the terrorists who have been tormenting the Syrian people for seven years, provoking a new wave of refugees from this country and the region as a whole. »
The failure of the coalition strike on Syria is the beginning of the decline of the US military hegemony in the world: the Yugoslav and Iraqi-Libyan scenario will no longer pass. The world reaction to the incident shows that punitive operations under a far-fetched pretext lead to the opposite results, which the organizers counted on.
Veterans of the Russian Union of Veterans appeal to all people, veterans and all antifascist forces – forces of good will in the world: Don’t give up to a world fire!
The degradation of one country can be the beginning of the same against many countries and peoples and even whole continents!
The World can be easily set under nuclear fire, but it will be impossible to stop the destruction of world human civilization!
Unite your efforts and stop confrontation development for the future of all people of the earth!
