Adviser to the Helsinki Commission of the US Congress Paul Massaro said that the Russians "will be perceived as Germans after World War II."
He expressed this opinion on Twitter.
"Putin threw Russia 100 years back. He brought disaster to the Russian people ... The least they can do is speak their voices," wrote an adviser to the Helsinki Commission of the US Congress.
Putin has set Russia back 100 years. Brought catastrophe down on the Russian people. They will be viewed like the Germans after WWII. The least they can do is speak out

It will be recalled that today, 28 February, the International Football Federation and UEFA suspended Russia from all international competitions at the level of both national teams and clubs.
The Central Bank of the Russian Federation has stopped conducting foreign exchange interventions - Russia cannot carry them out due to new EU and US sanctions.
