The Lessons of Nuremberg international scientific conference is going to take place at the end of November, the website of the Ministry of Education and Science reports.

Its participants will gather in the Moscow's Victory Museum on Poklonnaya Hill. Historians, public figures, politicians, representatives of investigative bodies, lawyers, employees of museums and archives from different countries are going to take part in it. They will discuss the historical experience of the Nuremberg Military Tribunal and subsequent trials of war criminals.

The conference will be a large-scale event to coincide with the anniversary of the beginning of the Nuremberg Trials. The event will consider the history of the Nuremberg Tribunal from the point of view of the new historical materials about the genocide policy pursued by the Nazis in the Soviet Union. This is especially important at the present stage, since some politicians and historians have enough conscience to disagree with the decisions taken then.

The Nazis killed more than 11 million civilians on the occupied territory of the Soviet Union during WWII.
