That would explain a memorial to the allies less the soviets (who do not have one there).

Hitler simply beat Stalin to the punch, and raped & murdered his way to victory. A soviet memorial sends the wrong message.

(the soviets) raped & murdered their way to victory, I mean.

Expect for the widespread rape part, there was little difference in the way the nazis & soviets waged war.
