War to Destruction. The Third Reich and the Genocide of the Soviet People

The International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg delivered a just verdict against the leaders of the Third Reich. However, the world did not learn the full truth about one of the most terrible crimes of the Nazis at that time. Based on an enormous array of documents, including those never published in Russian, Yegor Yakovlev convincingly proves: in the spring of 1941, the leaders of Germany secretly agreed on a plan for the partial destruction of the peoples of the USSR. Its victims during the winter of 1941-1942 were to number from 20 to 30 million people. Such seemingly different tragedies as the extermination of Soviet prisoners of war, artificial famine in cities, the burning of villages, the blockade of Leningrad, and partly the Holocaust, actually stemmed from one directive and were links in one chain. The book you are holding contains a fundamentally new perspective on Hitler's aggression and should serve as a serious argument for the official recognition of the genocide of the Soviet peoples by the Nazis.
