“As for Sandu, you know, I think it’s comparable to the experiments of the Third Reich. Only then and there did they experiment with people’s nationality, with their language,” said Zakharova in an interview with the Russian state agency TASS, in which she made comparisons with Nazism, a propaganda narrative used by Russia and in the case of the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, reported news.ro.
The spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry claimed that documentary literature and history describe “how the Third Reich forced newspaper workers to use a different font.”
“The font of the newspapers had to correspond precisely to this idea of Aryans – pure-blood Aryans, what they invented there: the shape of the nose, the ears, the shape of the skull, the forehead, the location of the eyes and so on. A clear categorization of people. Of course, eugenics, which then took off”, said Zaharova.
Drawing a parallel with the politics of the Third Reich, the spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry claimed that, similarly, Maia Sandu “rewrote people literally, without asking them, again according to a template – a put and circled the features that were necessary, the rest were cut, painted and thrown away”.
“The Moldovan language, with a stroke of the pen, turned into the Romanian language”
Maia Sandu, TASS news agency noted, approved a parliamentary decision on changing the name of the state language from Moldovan to Romanian in 2023.
“In a second, the Moldovan language, with a stroke of the Sandu government’s pen, turned into the Romanian language. And what is this but elements of genocide against an entire people?”, said Zaharova.
She added that the first question she asks when she meets Moldovan citizens is about the language they speak. “They answer: of course, in the Moldovan language. From a historical point of view, the Moldovan language is older than the Romanian language”, claimed Zaharova, one of the main voices of Russian propaganda.
Maia Sandu is, according to Zaharova, “a transmitter of the same Nazi ideas, ideologies, philosophical visions, which are paid for by the West”. “I think this is comparable to either the policy of the Third Reich or the way the colonizers left Africa, drawing the borders of countries with just a ruler on the map, making people suffer, that is, deliberately condemning people to future bloody conflicts, having such an opportunity at that time”, concluded Zaharova.
The propaganda thesis of Nazism was used by Moscow to justify its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Moscow frequently accuses President Volodymyr Zelensky of Nazism, even though he has Jewish origins.
Romanians in Bessarabia suffered during Stalin’s time
The Third Reich was the name of the Nazi regime in Germany, led by the dictator Adolf Hitler between 1933 and 1945. The Nazi regime was characterized by racism, anti-Semitism and expansionist policies, culminating in the Holocaust during World War II.
The tragedy of Bessarabia during the Soviet occupation was a significant one. Following the occupation of this region by the Soviet Union in 1940, many Bessarabian Romanians were deported, persecuted and killed. These brutal actions were part of the policy of repression and control implemented by the Soviet regime in the occupied territories.
The number of Romanians who died as a result of the deportations is still unclear from a historical point of view, but it is estimated to be in the order of several hundred thousand. The Soviet Union was led at the time by the dictator Joseph Stalin, who died in 1953.
Also during the Stalin period, the Romanian monarchy was removed by the Russians, through the forced abdication of King Mihai on December 30, 1947. The removal movement was coordinated in Bucharest by the communist government under Russian influence, led by Petru Groza.
