The Minister of Culture of Russia Olga Lyubimova announced the creation of such a museum. According to her, the museum will include "authentic objects, documents, materials dedicated to the development of our country and preserving the memory of the exploits of our compatriots."
A place for the museum was found in the center of Mariupol. St. Petersburg will help with the arrangement.
The publication had a 28-page document entitled "Methodical recommendations for the creation of expositions dedicated to the history of the Soviet Union in museums of Russia".
The occupiers in Mariupol showed the future "museum of the liberation of the city"
It refers to museum exhibits that show that the invasion was necessary to protect the "Russian-speaking population" from "military aggression carried out in Donbas" by Ukraine "since April 2014", as well as "to protect Russia from an imminent attack by of the Armed Forces of Ukraine".
The Ukrainian government is called the "Nazi regime," and Novorossiya is "part of the history of Russia since the end of the 18th century."
The publication notes that this is part of Russia's propaganda campaign to use museums as platforms for war propaganda both in the country itself and in the temporarily occupied regions of Ukraine, which Russian officials call "new territories of Russia."
