Soviet Union attacked my country together with this Higher Race and inflicted similar losses in comparable period of occupation. It enslaved us and several countries of the region. I do remember Soviet occupation forces and I do remember how hard it was to rid them off, and what was left behind.
I understand that the people of Soviet Union had very little choice in regard of their nationality, and that they could have had no choice during the war (still a significant number of ex-Soviet soldiers joined Polish forces during the Polish Campaign). But this should not be used to justify criminal nature of Soviet Union and communism.
Have in mind that among others we discuss aircraft like Thunderbolt and Yakovlev, both created by designers of similar origin. The question arises, why Kartvelli and Seversky could not remain in Russia and to design Thunderbolt there.
