Memorandum – appeal to the international community
Resistance to fascism was a common struggle that united those who fought for a life based on freedom, peace and friendship between nations. In all countries of Europe, this struggle was supported and developed thanks to the heroism and dedication of the fighters, the courage and the spirit of self-sacrifice of the nations who helped the guerrilla groups in every way to resist the destructive Nazi cruelty that set fire to cities and countries, destroying unarmed citizens, men, women, the elderly and children. The most significant losses in the Second world war – about 27 million people – suffered the USSR, whose historical role in these events is that it became the main military and political force that led to the victorious course of the war, its results, namely the protection of the peoples of the world from enslavement by fascism. Mass murders were committed by the fascists in Italy and throughout Europe, occupied by the German army.
