In 2008, Meliton Kantaria's motherland Georgia was bombed by Putin's Russia.
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) Consisted of 15 Soviet Socialist Republics (S.S.R.’s); Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan , Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, ,Uzbekistan. So when you said " Missing from US and UK recollections of WWII is the role of the Soviet Union in defeating the Nazis at a cost of 27 million Russian lives." Actually they are not the Russians, they are Georgians, Ukrainians, Armenians, etc. They are from 15 different countries.

Simple; The USSR was not Russia. The EU isn't only France, Or NATO isn't only America. NATO's Soldiers aren't only American soldiers. It's YOU.
