I am a Lithuanian, pursuing a Master's degree in history at Humbold-University of Berlin. My interests are the history of the Soviet Union, especially Stalinism, and the Third Reich. Moreover, I am interested in the current political tendencies in Eastern Europe, since it is where I come from.
I was twelve years old. And I clearly remember the MI-24 combat attack helicopter flying over our garden, which for me signified the beginning of the conflict, or the shooting from our railway station.
