Russia takes aim at Battle of Kursk ‘failure’

"Vladimir Medinsky, the culture minister, likened Ben Wheatley’s assertion to those of Nazi generals trying to twist facts about the war in their memoirs."
"Mr Medinsky said that it was an attempt to rewrite history by “political propagandists in the West”."
Kind regards,
