- I talk about the legacy of the Red Army of the liberation of Europe during WW2 and the attempts to either downplay the contribution of the USSR in defating fascism or to rewrite history. #ww2 #belarus #ussr
Below is a list of mostly non aggression Pacts with Hitler, signed before the Soviets decided to make a non aggression pact also.
‘On January 26, 1934, Germany and Poland signed a non-aggression pact known as the Pilsudski-Hitler Pact. The document marked the onset of the Polish-German rapprochement, which enabled the Nazis to prepare for its massive aggression against neighboring nations’.30 Sept 2021

Correct 👍
Im half Spanish and my Grandmother had to flee in 1938 to Uruguay from the Spanish Civil war. And I knew people that told me about the Franco's fascism regime what was the worst regime that a part of my family get through. Thank got this ended in 1975.
Thank you Irish Parisian, greetings from Waterford 🤩
Comrade I personally will never forget the sacrifices of the Soviet People
there are no "soviet people", there are people who were mobilized forcefully to serve the moscovian occupation army.
something that you would see on the occupied Ukranian's territories at the moment.
@@elliotjung1766 You don’t know anything about the Great Patriotic War, do you? The vast majority went to fight the Nazis voluntarily. Moreover, some of the Soviet people wrote down the wrong age on their documents in order to be accepted into the army. You people of capitalism are not able to understand. You are individualists. You only think about your own skin. Soviet people were a collective where they thought not only about themselves but also about others. What choice did they have? Hitler directly said that he was going to genocide the entire population of the USSR up to the Ural Mountains and populate this territory with Germans. It was a fight for the sake of survival, for the sake of the future.
Your Ukrainian "heroes" were on Hitler's side. 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, Banderite, Ukrainische Hilfspolizei. These are their modern-day heroes. They destroy monuments in honor of the Ukrainians of the Red Army, they abolished Victory Day by creating some kind of abstract “Europe Day”... The real heroes of Ukraine are Sydir Kovpak and his red Ukrainian partisans. Sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko. Marshals Semyon Timoshenko and Rodion Malinovsky. The best military pilot of the entire anti-Hitler coalition is Ivan Kozhedub. THESE ARE THE REAL HEROES OF UKRAINE!!!
It's great that you reminded all these important facts! 💪 Takie care🤝
Hi IP ! Greetings from Cork. I love the content. Good lad yourself !
Great video, thanks
I’m currently visiting Minsk.
Excellent 💪🎖️🎖️
Correct. While the narrative in the West has always been that many Soviet citizens were forced into resistance by Stalin (and this may still have truth to it) the facts are that these people suffered brutally at the hands of the Nazis and for much longer than most of the West did. Many people brutally murdered by the Nazis in the East were also Jews and way before it popped up on the West's radar,so to speak. Interesting titbit about Stalin using a pact to try to buy time to arm the Soviet Army to resist the strength of the German military at that time as that is barely spoken of in the Western countries either. Documentaries such as The World at War should be regular watching for schools and colleges as they were for those of us growing up in the 60s/70s/80s so as to never forget these horrors and to prevent them happening yet again.
there was no suffering until moscovits (not for the first time) decided to make the belarus' territories a bridgehead (which were annexed by moscovits in 1795).
Calling taking control and annexation over Eastern Europe countries "liberation" is a crime
" The World at War should be regular watching for schools and colleges as they were for those of us growing up in the 60s/70s/80s so as to never forget these horrors and to prevent them happening yet again."
No, they should not.
The easiest way to prevent anything similar in the furure it is to erase the moscovian empire. I'm afraid what you have watched is a mere propaganda.
Yes, the "horrors", which were pretty much artificial, as the ongoing war and it is related to the first world war as well induced by the same cause
@@elliotjung1766 No suffering for whom?
Did you suffer? Hitler wanted to completely destroy us! Jews, Gypsies and Slavs! He literally said that we are Untermensch and should disappear from the face of the Earth. We did not “suffer”, we were exterminated, but we were able to survive and break the fangs of the Nazi beast.
Great video, Do pobachenniya, tovaristch Niall!
Vechnya Pomyat to the Immortal Battalion !
Blessings on Victory Day Niall.
A lot of people in post soviet union have dachas summer homes not far away from their main home. In USA only very wealthy people have second home.
Belarus indeed played major role in destroying Army group Center in 1944 (Operation Bagration).
P.S.
Red Army on forever !
Don't forget about the so called "The Munich's Conspiracy" in 1938.
Excellent vid comrade 💪
change the fascist avatar
The only time I cared about the song contest was when Fathers Ted and Dougal entered with "My Lovely Horse".
Great video as always!
Belarus was the most destroyed country in WW2 which is why almost all structures in the country are less than 100 years old. It bore the biggest brunt of Operation Barbarossa, the largest and most brutal military campaign in human history. Belarusians will never forget.
The Irish Partizan is right posting this videos unlike he used to do on Facebook back in the day about Belarus and the former Soviet Union 😅🇮🇪
Red Army 🟥 Long Live The FIGHTERS💪🟥 forget western revisionism.
It is extremely unfortunate and scary that many Polish people are now seeing Nazi Germany more favorably. This is something that I have been noticing over the last decade, and is something I don't understand. Propaganda has clearly been doing its job.
No we dont. USSR and Germany are equal. We hate each of them because of that what they did to our contrie. They together attacked our land in september 1939, occupied our country and killed milions of oir people. After that USSR took our freedom and installed communist goverment in our contrie. That's Why we hate both of them
Spot on analysis, comrade 👍
They don’t say Komrade any more. Druga , moi druga . My friend .
Good video as always but it's sad to see that you can't speak 100% what you think. But I can say : Nothing justifies a war of aggression against another sovereign country. Not a dead uncle and even not a dead big brother.
Who said I can't speak 100% of what I think? Try saying that there are two genders in the UK and see how fast the police are at your door.
Really,
100% certain about that?
Maybe try saying in one of your videos that Lukashenko is an oppressive dictator who's been in power for 30 years. See how long it'll take before they're knocking on your front door.
@@UnbelievableEricthegiraffe You do know that you can have the cops knock on your door in the West for saying that there are only two sexes, for protesting a genocide that is currently underway in occupied Palestine and then there is Julian Assange. You live in a dictatorship but you don't know it. Careful there frog slowly boiling in that pot.
Three points on Molotov-Ribbentrop:
1. The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was not simply an 'insurance policy', it was a carve up of Europe between nazi-Germany and the USSR. It was more of a 'mutual aggression pact' than a 'non-aggression pact' and led to misery amongst the states allotted to the Soviet sphere.
2. At the time of the Pact, Britain and France had already agreed to come to the aid of Poland. The Pact pulled the rug from under their feet; doing nothing would have been far more helpful.
Instead, Stalin promised a joint invasion of Poland and provided supplies to Hitler in his wars against the allies. He positively aided Hitler. This is a fact.
3. If Stalin needed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact because he was not strong enough to face Germany in 1939, when Britain and France were already committed to war over Poland, what credibility has the assertion that he was genuinely trying to forge an alliance with Britain and France at an earlier date?
It might be an exaggeration to say that the USSR caused WW2, Hitler's ambitions were obviously the prime mover, but M-R helped.
I think you made mistake
Between ussr and naci Germany was made agreement.
Ww2 I think was aftermath of how ww1 ended and Paris agreement, it was not fear to Germany.
@@derky3592 Thanks for pointing out the mistyping. Now corrected.
The crucial non-aggression pact was the Hitler-Pilsudski (German-Polish) Pact on 1934.
By securing his eastern borders Hitler was able to break the terms of the Versailles Treaty. This had restricted the size of Germany’s army, Navy, and Airforce and demilitarised the Rhineland.
Following the Polish German Pact, Hitler was able to remilitarise Germany and move back into the Rhineland (1936). Then Anschluss of Austria was then completed in 1938, before Germany with Poland (and Hungary) took apart Czechoslovakia.
Seeing that most other countries in Europe had made a non aggression pact with Hitler and rejected the proposed Soviet security arrangements (Eastern Pact) the Soviets made a non aggression pact too.
@@rjames3981 Except that the Soviet one wasn't a non-aggression pact, it was a pact to collude in aggression and support each others aggression.
Neither the Poles nor anyone else had a secret protocol that arranged the joint invasion of a third country and gave carte-blanche for each party to do what it liked in its 'sphere of influence' with the approval and even help of the other party - and with quotas for materials supplied. The provision of war materials by the Soviet Union to nazi Germany was even extended after the initial protocol was concluded by the German-Soviet Commercial Agreement of 11 February 1940 and the 10 January 1941 German-Soviet Border and Commercial Agreement.
So, there is no comparison at all between the non-aggression treaties and the Molotiv-Ribbentrop pact which was intended to support nazi aggression and make it as difficult as possible for the allies to fight it.
But the allies did not hold it against the Soviet Union when come-uppance day arrived in June 1941. They were unstinting in their supplies to the Soviet Union and sent nothing at all to nazi Germany to help it in its endeavour. The descendants of the seven million Ukrainians who fought in the Red Army could be excused for thinking that we made the wrong choice.
‘It was only when it became absolutely clear that Great Britain and France were not going to help their ally and the Wehrmacht could swiftly occupy entire Poland the USSR decided to send in Red Army units into the so-called Eastern Borderlines, which nowadays form part of Belorussia, Ukraine and Lithuania. There was no alternative - the USSR would have had to enter into the inevitable war with the Nazis from very disadvantageous strategic positions, while millions of people of different nationalities, including the Jews, would have had been left to die at the hands of the Nazis and their local accomplices’
When you will be in Waterford
Do you really believe this stuff you say??
I really believe that Niall is too intelligent to believe what he's just said.
As a Westerner with a popular youtube channel he no doubt gets monitored.
I like his videos but it's obvious that he has to 'tow the line' regarding what he says to avoid trouble with the authorities.
A bit like Mr Bald when he was questioned in Russia. He also said what was needed to stay safe...
Hello Julian Assange, Gonzalo Lira, Algirdas Paleckis, Pablo Gonzalez and the pro Palestine protestors in the US and across the EU.
Do you believe the greshka that the western media feeds you on a daily basis ?
@@PB-Tommy I like his videos too, maybe you are right. My issue is not with people who are anti west. The current people who run the West have run it into the ground, but non western countries are just as bad or worse. You don't see mass migration making it's way to Belarus, Russia, Syria, Burundi or Cuba etc. But you hundreds of thousands monthly try and get into western countries. Why is that?
@@IrishPartizan There is a very elaborated video by Conor Clyne that deals with Gonzalo Lira and the circumstances of his death. I remember you said once Conor Clyne is your friend. Your friend scathingly criticized Gonzalo Lira. You must have many arguments with him over Lira.
Hi Niall, thanks for the video. I'll be coming your way towards the end of June. Would you be interested/available to meet up for lunch? I will shoot you an email and you can reply directly.
Good history lessons, but do you still think that we have to sit at the table to negotiate with them while they are trying to kill our leaders like they have done today in Slovakia?
Do you think that we have to provide more weapons to our policemen so that they can fight more efficiently arab commandos with war guns like yesterday in France?
Nobody will sit at any table to negotiate with anybody, you can be sure of that. I look forward to the end of this year to see what I am almost sure that will happen in the US...
God bless Russia and its great people ❤❤❤🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺☦☦☦🙏🙏🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪☘☘☘
Ukraine and the free world celebrates it on May 8th.
"Ukraine and the free world"... LOL!
Can you please explain why youlike Vladimir Lenin.
Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦

@@IrishPartizan I think that you didnt understand. It was victory parade after inviding Poland XDD they attacked Poland TOGETHER with nazi germans
@@IrishPartizan and can you give me some articles about that what happened with Polish soliders after that war? In Katyń and many other places. What about polish citizens sent to Siberia?
@@szymonkubicz5306 Professor Grover Furr has written extensively on the subject.
@@szymonkubicz5306 Translation:"It's ok when we do it, not the USSR". You should read up on the shameful conduct of the Polish government in the aftermath of Munich.
