Russian MFA Cites 1942 Hitler Order Against Australian TV Mockery
Sky News Australia's 'The Macpherson Angle,' aired 19 July, mocked Moscow's complaint over troops trained to be 'best skilled in killing Russians.'
- Embassy quotes Hitler's 23 July 1942 order to Rosenberg: kill three to four million Russians yearly.
- MFA cites ex-Rada speaker Andrey Parubiy's 2018 remark comparing democracy to Hitler.
- Statement notes World War II cost Russia 27 million lives fighting Nazism.
Why it matters: Reaching for a 1942 extermination order to answer a satirist concedes there is no argument left to make.
