This motion has not been discussed in the Assembly and commits only those who have signed it.
A new totalitarian ideology and practice of Ruscism – which
is the ideology of the Russian terrorist regime – has become a source
of crimes such as crime of aggression, war crimes, crimes against
humanity and genocide, committed by the Russian Federation against
Ukraine, as well as in Chechnya and Syria. Ruscism is a mixture
of totalitarian ideologies and practices such as Soviet totalitarian
communism, Nazism, Russian chauvinism and imperialism.
Ideology and practice of Ruscism, as a kind of Russian fascism,
should be denounced in Europe as well as in the world.
The propaganda of Ruscism and its symbols should not be protected
by freedom of speech. Glorification of Ruscism should not be tolerated
in the member States of the Council of Europe.
