| Direct translation of the article [REGNUM] In Nikolaev, the body of a local lore scientist, candidate of historical sciences Vladimir Shchukin was found . On May 14, the Commissioner for the Protection of the State Language Taras Kremen wrote about this on his page on the social network Facebook. “Unknown malefactors interrupted the life of a talented teacher, brilliant historian, gifted researcher Vladimir Shchukin. Rest with God, teacher ... "- it was said in the message. The police said that the body of a 67-year-old man with knife wounds and head injuries was found by neighbors on the doorstep of the victim's apartment. The victim reportedly specialized in Holocaust studies. “In 2018, in Nikolaev, the scientific supervisor of Shchukin's dissertation, historian Nikolai Shityuk, was killed. Volodymyr Shchukin is the co-author of the book about the Righteous Among the Worlds of Nikolaev and was killed on the day of remembrance of the Righteous of the World, ”commented the head of the Ukrainian Jewish Committee Eduard Dolinsky on his Facebook page. As reported by IA REGNUM , earlier the writer Jonathan Lytell decided not to publish a novel about the Holocaust in Ukraine, as the Ukrainian publishing house tried to impose on him an “afterword” to the novel with a “pro-Ukrainian” point of view on this event. |

| #3 Ukrainians like killing Russians, Poles, and Jews. Jews are just the easiest. |

| #2 By the time the Nazis came along, the Soviets had already forced about 3.5 million Ukrainians to starve to death in the Holodomor. One can understand the Ukrainians seeing the Nazis as the lesser immediate evil. |

| #1 No surprise, given the Ukrainians' checkered past in helping the Nazis (if not repulsing them with even more sicko acts). |
