"The events of the past few weeks, the EU-Russia summit, the Russian attacks on Estonia, and the divergent interpretations of the victory day observed on 9 May have brought to light that there are not only economic and social differences between the new and the old Member States, but that these countries also experienced the events following the Second World War in different ways. For most of Western Europe, the victory of the anti-fascist Allies, among them the victory of the Soviet Union, unambiguously represented liberation, while in Central Europe and in the Baltic states, liberation from Nazism brought with it a lasting Soviet occupation, dictatorship, and in certain cases meant the beginning of mass reprisals. Relations between the EU and Russia cannot be held hostage to historical grievances, but to this end, Russia must change its foreign policy, and cannot behave aggressively with Estonia and other EU Member States. The new Member States, for their part, must move beyond their historical grievances."@en1
