Mizulina accused Trump of blasphemy over his WWE remarks

The head of the Safe Internet League, Yekaterina Mizulina, has called US President Donald Trump's words about Russia helping America to win World War II blasphemy and mockery. She said this on January 22 during a meeting with participants of the 36th international festival of the Club of Merry and Resourceful (KVN) in Sochi.

"Today I saw Trump's post. I hope that after it all the enthusiasm in most people has already gone to the background. Because to say that Russia allegedly helped the Americans win World War II is, in my opinion, just sacrilege and mockery of the memory of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers," TASS quoted Mizulina as saying.

According to her, the statements of the US President are an insult to the memory of WWII soldiers. Mizulina noted that she does not consider her grandfather, who participated in the Battle of Stalingrad, to be an aide to the US. The head of the League of safe Internet said that he fought for his country and for his relatives.
