In an interview with the American journalist Tucker Carlson, Vladimir Putin justified the actions of the Nazis, saying that the intransigence of the Poles regarding the ownership of Gdańsk forced Adolf Hitler to start a war with Poland in 1939.
"This part was given to Poland and the city of Gdansk appeared instead of Danzig. Hitler asked them (the Poles) to surrender peacefully - the Poles refused...
The Poles forced, they played and forced Hitler to start the Second World War with them. Why did the war start on September 1, 1939, precisely from Poland? She turned out to be recalcitrant. Hitler had no choice but to implement his plans - to start with Poland."Putin said.
To these words, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland, Radosław Sikorski, wrote on the social network X (Twitter):
"This is not the first time Russian dictator Putin has accused Poland, captured by the USSR on September 17.09.1939, XNUMX, of starting the war.
We are used to paranoid justifications for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. What is shocking is that this time an American journalist allows them."
