Rareș Bogdan Criticizes Russian Ambassador Valeri Kuzmin’s Denial of War Crimes and Commitment of Atrocities

Rareș Bogdan, a member of the National Liberal Party (PNL) and a Member of the European Parliament (MEP), has launched a scathing attack on the Russian ambassador in Bucharest, Valeri Kuzmin. Bogdan’s criticism comes in response to an interview given by Kuzmin, in which he denied Russia’s attempts to conquer Romania and dismissed allegations of war crimes committed by Russian forces.

In the interview, Kuzmin claimed that Russia never came to Romanian soil as a conqueror and did not commit war crimes or atrocities similar to those allegedly committed by Romanian troops on the territory of the Soviet Union. These statements have infuriated Bogdan, who referred to Kuzmin as a “wretched scoundrel” and accused him of distorting historical facts.

Bogdan pointed out that Stalin, whom he described as one of the biggest criminals in history, was responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of Romanians in camps, as well as massacres and torture in Bucovina and Bessarabia. He also criticized Kuzmin for downplaying the atrocities committed by the Romanian army in Odessa, where tens of thousands of Jews were killed following the detonation of the Romanian Military Command.

Furthermore, Bogdan accused Kuzmin of denying the guilt of the Red Army soldiers who allegedly committed rapes and robberies on Romanian territory during World War II. He reminded the ambassador of the mass graves where Romanians who refused to ally with Russian agents were buried. Bogdan went on to claim that the actions of Russia in Romania almost 80 years ago are now being repeated in Ukraine.

In a passionate Facebook post, Bogdan expressed his outrage at the ambassador’s remarks. He questioned whether the terrible events witnessed by their grandparents when the Russians came to Romania after World War II were mere inventions. He also highlighted the horrific crimes committed against young girls and criticized the use of terror as a military strategy, which he believes continues in Ukraine today.

Bogdan concluded his post by condemning the presence of Russian apologists in Romania and expressing his dismay at the situation. His strong words reflect the deep-seated tensions between Romania and Russia, as well as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
