Russian Foreign Minister provokes Israel: Hitler also had Jewish blood
Lavrov

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has stated on Italian television that Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler had Jewish blood and that some of the worst anti-Semites are Jews. He reiterated Russia's claim that its occupation of Ukraine was to "denationalize" the country.

"He (Zelensky) puts forward an argument: what kind of Nazism can they have if he is Jewish. I may be wrong, but Hitler also had Jewish blood. It means absolutely nothing. "The wise Jewish people say that the most ardent anti-Semites are usually the Jews."

The Russian minister's statement was met with outrage across the Israeli political spectrum. Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett declared: Such lies are intended to blame the Jews themselves for the most heinous crimes in history and thus absolve the oppressors of the Jews from their responsibility. "No war today is the Holocaust or the Holocaust."

Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid reacted angrily, calling Mr Lavrov's words "unforgivable" and summoning the Russian ambassador to Israel to an explanatory meeting.

Mr. Lavrov was also convicted by the head of Israel Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, Dani Dayan.

"Most of his remarks are absurd, delusional, dangerous and deserve any punishment," he wrote on Twitter. "Lavrov is dealing with the overthrow of the Holocaust: the return of victims to criminals, based on the promotion of a completely unfounded claim that Hitler was of Jewish descent."

In recent months, Israel, which has a large Russian population, has sometimes tried to act as a mediator between Russia and Ukraine. However, the Israeli government has faced some criticism for not maintaining a tough stance with President Putin. Mr Lavrov's comments will test Israel's relations with Russia, and while they are offensive to many, they reflect a common narrative among Kremlin supporters.

For decades there have been unproven claims that Hitler's unidentified grandfather by father was Jewish, prompted by a statement by Hitler's lawyer, Hans Frank.

In his memoirs, published in 1953, Frank said he was instructed by Hitler to investigate rumors that he was of Jewish descent. Frank said he found evidence that Hitler's grandfather was indeed Jewish - although the claim, which has gained ground among conspiracy theorists, has been treated with skepticism by ordinary historians.
