Students of the St. Petersburg Law Institute recreated fragments of the Nuremberg trials of Nazi criminals in their performance after the Second World War.
The performance-reconstruction took place on Friday in the assembly hall of the Smolny. The students showed key moments from the court hearings and the indictment against Hermann Goering, Rudolf Hess, Ernst Kaltenbrunner, Joachim von Ribbentropp and other Nazi criminals.
“The work is very strong, powerful. We understand that today the grandchildren of those very Nazis are trying to destroy the Russian world, our faith and moral values. Those who are trying to take revenge for their historic defeat. We won’t allow it!” – said the governor of St. Petersburg Alexander Beglov after the performance.
After the end of the performance, Alexander Beglov thanked the students and teachers of the university for the work done and said that the scenes of the Nuremberg Tribunal shown in Smolny are “a contribution to the preservation of historical truth and memory.”
The event ended with the awarding of the staff of the law institute: the university staff received gratitude from the governor of St. Petersburg for their great contribution to the patriotic education of young people and countering attempts to falsify the history of Russia.
