In the West, a cliché is circulated that the Second World War was a "war for American democracy." In the Baltic countries, SS legionnaires are glorified, even though the peoples of these countries were destined to be faceless human material in Hitler's project. In the European Parliament and the Council of Europe, it is already openly stated that the war was waged between two predators for world dominance, and for Eastern Europe, victory was not a victory but a defeat. This book stands against today's distortion of the main meaning of the Second World War - the greatest battle for the right of peoples to be the creators of their own history.
The publication contains a revised and expanded edition of N.A. Narochnitskaya's book "The Great Wars of the 20th Century," as well as a selection of documents from the pre-war, wartime, and very recent past, in which the reader will find evidence of the main conclusions of the book.
