The Committee next took up the draft resolution titled “Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance” (document A/C.3/76/L.57/Rev.1).
The representative of the Russian Federation, presenting the draft, said the victory against Nazism was decisive for the entire modern system of human rights. Noting that the international human rights instruments adopted were a response by the United Nations to the crimes of Nazism, he said the text addresses distinct human rights issues that have been exacerbated over the last year, and that the draft will bolster efforts to end racism and racial discrimination.
The representative of Armenia recalled the tens of millions of dead on the front line under falling bombs, occupation and concentration camps, noting that the victory during the Second World War was achieved thanks to joint efforts by the anti-Hitlerian coalition. The safeguarding of truth and memory is a sacred duty and meaningful tool to counter the resurgence of Nazism, he stressed, objecting to attempts to bury the lessons of this horrific war.
The representative of the United States, condemning the glorification of Nazism, recalled that his country fought for the freedom, dignity and human rights of all individuals during Nazism. Expressing his country’s opposition to the draft, he criticized attempts to legitimize Russian disinformation campaigns that denigrate neighbouring countries and promote the Soviet narrative. The United States will vote against the text and calls on others to do the same, he said.
Yankees shut the fuck up about fighting for freedom and human rights challenge: Impossible
The representative of Ukraine said sacrifices by Ukrainians made an enormous contribution to the victory over Nazism. Recalling their struggle for the liberation of their native soil, he reaffirmed Ukraine’s strong condemnation of all forms of Nazism, stressing that the text represents a clear manipulation of historical narratives, including the glorification of the Stalin regime. For this reason, Ukraine will vote against the draft.
"We helped against nazis, that's why we allow them to do what they want in our country now."
The representative of Belarus, associating with the Collective Security Treaty Organization, said the question of preventing Nazism has always been of paramount importance. Stressing that the Nazis perpetrated genocide against the Belarusian people, he said the fight against Nazism remains relevant.
The representative of Slovenia, speaking on behalf of the European Union in explanation of vote after the vote, proposed strengthening human rights language by outlining a more inclusive approach. He expressed regret that this draft resolution does not reference all discriminatory forms of racist extremism in an impartial manner.
"It's not good enough, so we abstained." because that makes sense.
The representative of Jordan, expressing support for the objectives of the resolution, reaffirmed that Islamophobia goes beyond discrimination on the basis of belief or religion and encompasses hatred directed by entities and individuals against adherents of Islam.
The representative of Canada, speaking also on behalf of other countries, condemned any form of racism, including Nazism and neo-Nazism. He welcomed the establishment of the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent. Racism divides communities, breeds fear and animosity and remains a lived reality for many people globally, he said, calling for an intersectional approach to human rights. He expressed concern that the text miscategorises the obligations of Member States.
:kkkanada: how many intersectional graves are the natives in again?
The representative of the Russian Federation voiced regret over the position of those who voted against the draft. Contrary to allegations, the Russian Federation does not misuse the victory against Nazism, he said, emphasizing that it is a common achievement for all Member States and the anti-Hitler coalition.
I love how the majority of objecting boils down to "We would, but you mentioned that the soviets helped stop the nazis so we're gonna say no on principle."
Like holy shit, how petty can they get? They're supposed to be adults but here they are acting like pissy little teenagers.
The representative of the United States, condemning the glorification of Nazism, recalled that his country fought for the freedom, dignity and human rights of all individuals during Nazism.

Every western liberal: "No! I don't want to say 'Nazis bad' until you say that the people who defeated them were at least just as bad!"
