      As did everyone. There’s no study showing that the amount of rapes per soldier by the soviets is higher than that of other nations.

          Oh, boy. Good that soviets took such good care of recording rapes. Unlike bad western nazies. White washing soviet rapes with statistics.

          There is also one more reason. soviets had no bordelos for the regular army. Only officers had army wives. It is a known fact. So what would regular grunts would do is rape anything they find.

          But probably western propaganda. Because in communism, everyone is equal, and everything belongs to everyone.

          Like in current day russia.

        Oh fuuuuck of. There are books based on actual KGB archives that were opened up. Rape of Berlin is well described. There are books about the actual bordelos attached to armies. Western armies. Soviet officers had army wives. Apparently they still do.

        There are countless accounts of people prefering Nazi soldiers to soviets. It is THE reason central and easter Europe hates russia.

        No data on rapes my ass. But pleeenty of data that soviets single handedly saved the world from Nazis.

        Get a grasp.

          Wow, so the released KGB archives show the tapes. I wonder what would happen if the Americans or the English did that too!

          Hatred of Russians by eastern Europeans is due to 30+ years of anti-communist propaganda. The fact that poles hate the USSR which liberated more than the very Nazis who genocided millions of them, shows this. And it wasn’t the case 40 years ago.

          Polls in France after WW2 showed 70%+ of people saying it was the USSR who saved them from Nazism. Nowadays, it’s 70% Americans. That’s what Hollywood and propaganda do.

          What’s your point? Every rape is to be condemned and prosecuted. What isn’t fair is making up claims about the amount of rapes by a certain demographic and not backing that up with extensive evidence. That exactly what racist people do against immigrants, and that’s what Nazis did against soviets.
