During World War II, Hitler's policy toward Russia and its people was shaped by his belief in the necessity of Lebensraum, or "living space," for the German people. He envisioned the conquest of Soviet territory as part of a grand plan to create a German empire in Eastern Europe. This involved the forced displacement, enslavement, and extermination of large numbers of Slavic peoples.

During the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, known as Operation Barbarossa, the German military and SS units engaged in widespread atrocities, including mass killings of civilians, forced labor, and the systematic destruction of Soviet cities and infrastructure.

In summary, Hitler held deeply racist and hostile views towards Russians, seeing them as inferior and as obstacles to his imperial ambitions. His policies reflected this ideology, contributing to immense suffering and loss of life during the Second World War.

What were Hitler's views on Russians?

ChatGPT answered:


Adolf Hitler's views on Russians were deeply rooted in his racist ideology, particularly his belief in the concept of "racial hierarchy" as outlined in his book Mein Kampf and in Nazi propaganda. Hitler considered the Slavic peoples, including Russians, to be racially inferior to Germans, whom he believed belonged to the "Aryan" master race. He referred to Slavs as "Untermenschen" (subhuman) and saw them as part of a lower racial category.

In his book Mein Kampf, Hitler referred to the Russians as "subhuman" and believed they were incapable of developing the kind of civilization he attributed to the "Aryan" race. He viewed the Soviet Union, with its large population of Slavs, as a major threat to his expansionist goals, but also as a land to be exploited and colonized by Germans.
