In his speech at the Victory Day 9 May Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said, that it is the "Ukrainian soldiers" beat the Nazis during the Second World War. Most of the country suffered the war, According to Poroshenko, also it proved to Ukraine.
Poroshenko speech, in which he told, that Ukrainian marshals and generals headed by nearly half of the fifteen fronts in the Second World War. And it was among Soviet generals 300 Ukrainians. According to him, millions of Ukrainian soldiers in the war "fought not for Stalin, and for their land "- apparently, supposed, that all the other Soviet soldiers fought exclusively for Stalin.
It is my deep conviction, Nazism was defeated mainly Ukrainian soldiers. Soldier, whatever nation he was not, who fought not for Stalin, and for their land and family. Without the millions of soldiers-Ukrainians in the fields of World War II, World War I had not ended - Ukrainian President announced.
From punitive bullets, from cold and hunger have lost their lives, millions of Ukrainian civilians, fifty villages burned Nazis on Ukrainian soil - has reminded Poroshenko, preferring not to think about, how often in the ranks of the Nazi executioners recorded Ukrainians, including Kiev is now glorified after euromaidan.
