lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Mr President. In view of the forthcoming anniversary of the end of the Second World War, I should like to alert this House to fresh attempts that have been made to falsify and manipulate history for short-term political goals. Evidence of this can be seen in recent statements made by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the infamous Yalta Conference. The latter divided the European continent into two spheres of influence, in so doing subjecting many of the nations of Central and Eastern Europe, whose representatives are sitting in this House today, to nearly half a century’s oppression under an inhuman totalitarian system. The root cause of this was the German-Soviet Pact of August 1939, and responsibility for starting the Second World War rests not only with Germany, but also with Russia, as the heir to the Soviet Union. Yet while Germany has demonstrated its desire to face up to its tragic past, Russia still lacks the courage to do so. I hope the European Parliament will support this motion for a resolution, which condemns the Yalta Agreement. This would be a symbolic gesture of reparation towards the nations from behind the former Iron Curtain."@en1
