🇷🇺🎙Comment by Russian Ambassador to the Netherlands H.E. V.Tarabrin for RIA Novosti on the Latest Act of Vandalism at the Soviet Field of Glory Memorial (November 1, 2026) 🔹We strongly condemn another act of vandalism at the Soviet Field of Glory Memorial. We are closely monitoring the situation and remain in constant contact with the management of the Foundation responsible for this military burial site. 🔹It is particularly outrageous that such acts of barbarism have occurred more than once. We are compelled to note that the previous desecration of the memorial has never received a proper legal response. The circumstances of that incident were not duly investigated, those responsible were not brought to justice, and the necessary measures to ensure the protection of the military burial site have still not been taken. 🔹We are convinced that complete impunity only encourages vandals and paves the way for further criminal acts. Moreover, these incidents cannot be viewed in isolation from the broader atmosphere of Russophobia that has been deliberately fuelled in the Netherlands in recent years. Such an environment inevitably fosters intolerance and a dismissive attitude towards Russian and Soviet historical heritage, including the memory of those who sacrificed their lives in the fight against Nazism. 🔹We will persistently demand that the Dutch authorities conduct a prompt and thorough investigation, bring those responsible to justice and take effective measures to prevent similar crimes in the future. ❗️We expect that, this time, the Dutch authorities will demonstrate a sense of responsibility and ensure that this situation will not repeat!
