▶ Russia Punks Germany, Calls Up Reservists and Puts ICBMs On Combat Status – YouTube
Russia’s
lower house of parliament is setting up a working group to calculate
how much money to demand from Germany for World War II reparations, the
Izvestia newspaper reported Tuesday.
Germany has paid billions of
dollars in reparations to Israel since a 1952 agreement on compensation
for Nazi war crimes. But it “has not paid the Soviet Union any
reparations,” parliament member Mikhail Degtyaryov told the newspaper.
Degtyaryov,
a member of the nationalist LDPR party, believes that Germany should
pay 3 or 4 trillion euros to Russia for the “destruction and atrocities”
that Germany committed during World War II, the newspaper reported.
“Germany
paid compensation for 6 million victims of the Holocaust, but has
ignored the 27 million Soviet people who were killed [during World War
II], 16 million of whom were civilians,” Degtyaryov was cited as saying.
“Calls
in 2015 Russian citizens in reserve to undergo military training for up
to two months in the armed forces of the Russian Federation, in the
Interior Troops of the Interior Ministry, in the organs of state
protection, the Federal Security Service”, — stated in the decree.
Terms of duties agreed with the local authorities, with the exception of
test duties, terms which defines the Defense Ministry.
