Today, the Ukrainian people are under attack. The story of
their nation is forever linked to the 1.5 million Jews and 70,000 other
civilians murdered there by the Germans and their collaborators during the
Holocaust. Russian President Vladimir Putin has twisted that history to
justify an invasion, falsely claiming to be waging war against Nazism and
genocide.
