We’re on a summer break, so we’re re‑releasing this episode, originally published on May 27, 2025. To legitimize its war of aggression against Ukraine, Russia monopolizes victory and victimhood in WWII for itself. At the same time, it deliberately neglects its role as perpetrator, particularly in the Baltic states and Eastern Europe under Soviet occupation from 1945 to 1991. How can Moscow´s superiority complex be effectively challenged? And what role should Germany play in addressing this historical distortion? Guest: Sergei Lebedew
