Liability burden: who and what did you do during the occupation and why they do not need to be condemned

"Today, I know, fierce disputes about occupation are ongoing. Many are uncompromising condemn those few who in the first days of the war, when the Russians surrounded the village, represented power or simply took responsibility for themselves and did something. Opinion. A year ago, on March 31, Maxim Kasyanov and I were the first to enter the colonshchyna, as we promised.
