“History for #Putin is an instrument to shape current events. He is absolutely uninterested in historical truth,” said Oleg #Orlov , a leading human rights activist for more than three decades at the head of #Memorial , which was shut down in 2021.
At the beginning of the war last year, Mr. Orlov stood alone on Red Square with a banner saying, “1945: A country victorious over fascism. 2022: A country where fascism is victorious.”

My favourite Dmitry Orlov moment? That goal against Colorado. I don't think I've ever seen a goal like that before, or since.

I knew it was coming but seeing #Orlov get traded from the #AllCaps to the #Bruins hurts. I understand the need to do it, and I'm totally onboard with it as a transaction....

But the guy was basically my second favourite player for the last decade. He's gonna be missed in DC.
