The presentation was attended by the ambassadors of Ukraine, Hungary, Slovakia and representatives of other states, as well as UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.

According to him, it is extremely necessary to remind oneself of the Great Patriotic War lessons.

-We need to pay tribute to the fact that the Soviet Union has made the greatest military effort against Nazism, and also because the Soviet Union has suffered the greatest sacrifices - human and others - in order to defeat Nazism, - he said.

Recently, it is clear how the neo-Nazi movement is rising, the official man said.

- We see political movements that either recognize their neo-Nazi connection, or use symbols, images, words. We hear them being repeated in demonstrations in different parts of the world,- the UN Secretary-General said.

- It is our duty to do everything possible to cure this terrible disease." The memory of those who defeated Nazism in 1945 will help to defeat any manifestation of neo-Nazism in our time, - added Antonio Guterres.

The exposition of the Russian Military Historical Society, represented at the UN headquarters, was first opened in February 2018 at the Kazan railway station in Moscow and the Moscow-Rostov-on-Don train. The event took place within the framework of perpetuating the memory of the feat of Alexander Pechersky and was timed to the birthday of the Hero.
