Given the insistence of so many pro-Putin posters that the USSR is not the same as the Russian Federation then any argument that the Baltics have to maintain the monuments of a fallen empire are null and void.

It's time to remove these monuments to rape and conquest. If Russia wants them then Russia should come get them. But they have no place on the soil of other nations who were enslaved by the USSR and who are now free.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. History has stopped

Sure, monuments to the Unknown Russian rapists in former Soviet Captive Nations should not be taken down.

When did Neocons join with the left in pulling down monuments?

The T-34 is the tank that beat the nazis. I wouldn’t mind having it in my yard

They’re not monuments, Comrade John

they’re deliberate symbols of oppression ... get rid of them ASAP

USSR was a monster ... and Russia is continuing where it left off

Estonia can do whatever it wants within its own borders, it’s a sovereign country

guess you forgot that part, Comrade John

Neocons are leftists so they probably support destroying confederate statues and ones to Columbus too (at least in private).

No place for Soviet/Russian monuments in former Soviet satellites that are now independent nations.

It's like having a statue of King George III at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

The people demolishing the "monuments" are victims of the USSR (i.e. the left) and the victims' descendents. They don't have the foggiest idea what a neocon is and couldn't care less.

Hey "Preston", got a better commie troll farm talking point?

“Prime Minister Kaja Kallas admitted that the city of Narva has the right to decide the fate of the tank. “But because it is clear that Narva itself will not intervene, the Estonian state and government must make the decision to move this and other monuments of symbolic value,” said Kallas.“

—————-

This is horseshit. The Estonian state and government have no right to make the decision.

The shipping cost might be a bit stout.

"Preston"

Your crash course in English as a second language has obviously failed. The Kremlin should demand their money back from your online instructor, or at least feed them a polonium cocktail for this failure.

Unlike the Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania & Estonia were independent countries.

Now, when are you going to clean up Canada, hoser ?
