Today is the birthday of the Soviet police!
Referral from RND.
This holiday was established by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on September 26, 1962 as the Day of the Soviet Police.
The date was designed to coincide with the founding day of the Workers' Militia - November 10, 1917, when the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs (NKVD) of the RSFSR issued a decree "On the Workers' Militia".
As we see, this day has nothing to do with modern police officers.
But many, including the top leadership of the Russian Federation, welcome the police.
- Why is this happening? - You ask.
We think that the answer to this question should be sought in the Kremlin offices.
In the photo, police officers in the Moscow region decided, on the day of the so-called "Friendly People's Day", to depict the six-pointed Star of David.
What are they for, do you think?
