This year we mark the 75th anniversary since the end of the Nuremberg Trials, which condemned the crimes of Nazi Germany on behalf of the international community. However, even today we witness the discovery of Nazi crimes against humanity, the crimes that have no statute of limitations. For the first time, the documents of the Nazi leadership on the preparation of the mass destruction of Soviet citizens were published in Russian. This publication opens the large project “Immortal Memory”. Within this project it is planned to identify and digitize the entire array of data on the crimes of the Nazis against the citizens of the USSR, deposited in foreign archives. The project will also include materials made public after the completion of the International Nuremberg Tribunal. There is a need to move from defensive actions to firmly upholding public interests and the truth about the meaning and significance of the Great Victory, actively countering the distortion of historical facts.

The event is supported by the project “Nuremberg. Beginning of the World”. On the occasion of this memorable date, RIA Novosti launched a multimedia educational project “Nuremberg. The Beginning of the World”. The project is based on first-person testimonials. The creators, RIA Novosti and a group of research journalists, work with materials of the main Russian and foreign archives and funds studying the legacy of Nuremberg. Among the documents are unique archival and museum evidence, photographs, cartoons, photo and video materials. Project site: nuremberg.media

Please, note that in order to minimize the risks of the spread of coronavirus, all events are held online.
