Putin’s new history textbook says it was a mistake to withdraw from Hungary in 1991
Putin has a new history textbook written by his adviser Vladimir Medinsky. According to the new textbook, in 1956, rebellious radicals, former soldiers of fascist Hungary, took up arms and committed a large number of murders. The textbook concludes that it was a mistake for Russians to withdraw from Hungary.
New Russian state history book
In 1956, rebellious radicals, former soldiers of fascist Hungary, took up arms and committed many murders. According to a G7 article, this is how the new Russian state history textbook describes the 1956 revolution of Hungary. This volume will be compulsory for the education of 17-year-olds throughout the country. The volume for 11th graders was written by Vladimir Medinsky, an advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
G7 notes about Medinsky that as culture minister he fired the head of the Moscow archives for questioning the historical authenticity of the filmed legend of the Great Patriotic War, the story of 28 soldiers who stopped a German tank column in front of Moscow at the cost of their lives, 24.hu writes.
It was a mistake releasing Hungary
G7 points out that the book spends almost a hundred pages on Putin’s reign and 18 pages on the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war. In addition to the section on Hungary in 1956, it is noteworthy that the book considers the release of the Soviet satellite states, including Hungary, to be a major mistake.
As the book writes, “In 1989, the unilateral withdrawal of Soviet troops from Eastern and Central Europe began. This was a particularly ill-considered decision, because the weakening of the Soviet military presence in the Allied countries caused a rise in nationalist and anti-Soviet sentiment’.
Neo-nazism, brutal tactics in Ukraine
For example, according to the G7 article, in the sub-chapter on “Ukrainian neo-Nazism”, they discuss how, since the 1990s, generations have been “raised with anti-Russian, neo-Nazi ideals” and the Ukrainian army, following NATO orders, uses its own citizens as human shields, not allowing them to leave their homes. According to the textbook, ‘no army in the history of the world has ever used such brutal tactics on its own territory’.

Orbán’s master and best friend…. Hungarians, think about it when the elections come
So Putin and the Russians believe that it was a mistake to withdraw Russian troops from Hungary and the other Eastern European Satelites? Can anyone explain why Orban has his nose up Putin’s ass?
One nation’s heroes are another’s murderers. The victors write the history books, but in the case of ‘56 the Hungarians eventually prevailed and the Soviet Union wound up on the trash heap of history while Putin is trying to resurrect it.
Just maybe, he is RIGHT, the former President of the United States of America, his opinion, that DEMOCRACY in Hungary, is seen as to difficult a task or Challenge, for Hungarians to accept and be Governed under.
Present time, we certainly have “rolled over” giving STRONG growing indications, that a return to the style of Government 1945-1989 really is our comfort zone.
History never Lies.
” The farther backward you can look,
the farther forward you can see.”
So, Putin’s Russia claims that Russians were loved while being in Hungary but they started to be hated when they left Hungary; a lot of sense there; this, on top of other, makes Russia getting first and Hitle’s Gemany loses its leadership on propaganda machinery. Which means that EU sanctions have unexpected results. And they are not the best. Congrats to everyone, we live in a world of full nonsense.
Orban is doing everything in his power to prepare Hungary to welcome Russia back in. The Fidesz propaganda machine headed by Minister of Propaganda Antal Rogan is working day and night to brainwash the Hungarian population with Russophilia.
Kids – Russia today is not the USSR- maybe you ar too young to understand.
Eastern Europe has the best possibilities – why would anyone no regret being apart of it. No one in the EU has the intelligence of Putin and Orban is they only one that wants the killing stopped- how dare he !
Simple fact: Kremlin has files on Orban and few other high(er) rank officials..now they are in his grip. But to be entirely fair earth is burning under Orban’s feet, high inflation and weak economy to which there is no remedy. While asking for billions in Eu loan he tries to serve two masters and not anger primary employer in Moscow, hence no denial of Russian version of 1956 revolution.
