The Russian Ministry of Justice has posted a Nazi film titled *Hitler—The Liberator* on its website
The Russian Ministry of Justice has posted on its official website a Nazi German propaganda film titled “Hitler—the Liberator,” which was produced during World War II for residents of the occupied Soviet territories. The film was published as part of the exhibition “Defending the Sovereignty of the Russian State: History and the Present.”
In the film, Adolf Hitler is portrayed as a leader who allegedly waged a “struggle” against Bolshevism and acted as the “liberator of the Russian people.” The voiceover repeats Nazi propaganda themes about the struggle against “world Jewry,” “predatory capitalism,” and “democracy.”
The film also contains calls to support Hitler and his policies, while Soviet symbols are presented as symbols of “slavery” that must be destroyed.
The film was made publicly available without any explanation of its origin, historical context, or a warning that it is an example of Nazi propaganda.
The Russian Ministry of Justice’s exhibition consists of eight sections dedicated to Russian history from the 16th century to the present. According to the organizers’ description, it is intended to showcase “examples of external interference” and explain the need to counter such actions.
A separate section of the exhibition is dedicated to organizations and individuals whom the Russian authorities have placed on the list of “foreign agents.” In this section, their activities are presented as allegedly harmful to Russia.
The Russian agency’s release of a Nazi propaganda film came amid the Russian government’s active use of historical themes in its own state propaganda.
