The Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum will report a Ukrainian neo-Nazi soldier to Polish prosecutors for mocking the victims of the infamous death camp, a museum spokesman told RT on Thursday.
In a series of recent posts on Instagram, Nikita Miroschenko shared photos and reels of him and his girlfriend paying a visit to the death camp in Poland several weeks ago. One of the reels showed the gates of Auschwitz with the infamous Nazi slogan ‘Arbeit macht frei’ with German military music playing in the background, while another showed him wearing a shirt emblazoned with the text “Where we are, there is no place for anyone else” – a phrase attributed to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
“If the perpetrator is indeed a Ukrainian soldier, such an act on the grounds of the museum is also an unacceptable lack of respect to the memory of those who liberated the camp in January 1945,” Bartyzel told RT, noting that among the soldiers of the Soviet 60th Army who freed survivors from the camp, “there were both Russians and Ukrainians.”
