Putin has learned so much from Stalin and Hitler

Mayor of Mariupol, Vadym Boichenko yesterday compared Russia’s present-day tactics in Ukraine to those of the Nazis.

“At first, they blockade a peaceful city, purposefully start killing people, and then forcibly deport them to their territory,” he said.

That was exactly what Nazis Germany did in Ukraine and indeed, was what Soviet dictator Stalin did in the country.

From 1945 until now it was a seriously taboo subject to compare anyone to Adolf Hitler.

In 2022 we now have a Russian leader who can legitimately be compared to Hitler, and Vladimir Putin is that man.
