Wednesday marks the 65th anniverary of the liberation of Auschwitz -- Nazi Germany's most infamous death camp. Among those planning to travel to Poland for commemorations are 86-year-old Soviet army veteran Ivan Martynushkin. He was part of the unit that liberated the camp -- and is still haunted by what he saw. Duration: 01:33.

  • @DCfreak87 find some primary sources on that number. 1937-1938 was 760,000 murdered by nkvd. do your research, don't repeat what you read. come back and if you're not a political troll, you will have a good story to tell.

  • @DCfreak87 Make a video about that then and don't try to compare genocides, one doesn't make the other any better, besides if you take into account the millions killed by the Nazis in their occupation of Russia, Poland and the rest of occupied Europe, the Nazis killed more than 20 million - not counting the Jews, Gypsys, homosexuals, political and religious prisoners tortured, murdered and imprisoned.

  • @Behemoth9223 SIEG SCUM 00/00

  • @iamg00d They werent as fucked up as the Soviets. Stalin was responsible of 20 million deaths of his own people he was ten times worse than Hitler, the Germans were shit compared to Soviets
