Do you realize that some 10000 US servicemen were convicted for sexual assaults against French women, who weren’t even an enemy?
As for a Germans vs Russians their estimates are inflated. In 1945 Germany still had a racist law prescribing aborting for an ‘ethnic purity’ reasons. Any woman who wanted an abortion (and there were many because a few could afford even to feed themselves) simply went to the doctors claiming pregnancy as a result of rape by the Soviet soldier of Tatar or Chinese ethnicity. Problem solved and here we got fake records. I’m not saying that rapes didn’t happened at all but it not a unique problem related to the Soviets. war is war.

I guess that makes it okay, you filthy propagandist? But Russkies don't just rape, particularly in WWII. They even rape to the point of death, everyone, and with rapes numbering in the millions, from young children to old ladies, even Russian and Polish women "liberated" from concentration camps, as a part of state policy:

"Stalin said people should ' understand it if a soldier who has crossed thousands of kilometres through blood and fire and death has fun with a woman or takes some trifle'.

On another occasion, when told that Red Army soldiers sexually maltreated German refugees, he said: 'We lecture our soldiers too much; let them have their initiative.' While Stalin condoned rape as an instrument of state military policy, his police chief Lavrenti Beria was a serial rapist.

An American diplomat, Beria's bodyguard and the Russian actress Tatiana Okunevskaya all bore witness of his methods of grabbing women off the street and shoving them into his limousine and then his bed.

'You are a long way from anywhere, so whether you scream or not does not matter,' Beria would tell the women when he got them back to his dacha. 'You are in my power now. So think about that and behave accordingly.'

More than 100 school-aged girls and young women were drugged and raped by the man who ran the NKVD, the feared forerunner to the KGB.

'All of which means, of course, that if reports of Red Army soldiers raping women in eastern Europe were sent to the NKVD in Moscow, they finally reached the desk of a rapist himself,' says Rees.

The rape of Berlin's female population - anyone between the ages of 13 and 70 was in danger - was cruelly vicious.

In one heart-breaking incident, a Berlin lawyer, who had somehow protected his Jewish wife from persecution throughout the Nazi period, was shot trying to protect her from rape by Red Army soldiers. As he lay dying of his wounds, he saw his wife being gang-raped.

'They do not speak a word of Russian, but that makes it easier,' one Red Army soldier wrote in a letter home in February 1945. 'You don't have to persuade them. You just point a revolver and tell them to lie down. Then you do your stuff and go away.'
