    2:53 One year after German occupation of Kharkiv and the Ukrainian population still looks skinny and malnourished. The Germans plundered the food reserves as a means to fulfill the hunger plan. All of the Ukrainian signs from the Soviet era were gradually being replaced by German ones. Через рік після німецької окупації Харкова українське населення все ще виглядає худим і недоїданим. Німці грабували продовольчі запаси як засіб для виконання плану голодування. Усі українські вивіски радянських часів поступово витіснялися німецькими.

      at 1:57 you can see some children go skipping down the street! I knew people personally from Kharkov who saw the Germans as liberators more or less. Perhaps any malnourishment you see came from the Soviets collectivization? That was responsible for the deaths of millions of people.

      You would be correct as most Soviet cities fell relatively quickly. During 1941 and 1942, the Soviet Red Army experienced major losses and the Wehrmacht penetrated deep into Soviet territory until they reached the Volga by the end of the summer. It was only after 1943 when the tide of the war changed in favor of the Soviets. This is precisely when most of these cities experienced severe destruction as the Wehrmacht attempted to hold onto these cities with fierce resistance.

    To piggyback off of a comment made by someone else about how modern the city looks: In the same vein, most of the architecture we consider "modern" today when we think of a suburb or city in 2024 is stuff that was constructed during the 70s-90s. Weird how the lifespan of architecture tends to be crazy long compared to fashion or pop culture trends.

Argentina was never colony of the USA, Argentina just gave a new place to immigrants who need to escape from such an European destruction, zero discrimination against any nationality . By the way today is 2nd sad anniversary from the Russia vs Ukraine's war. My true apologizes áre for those soldiers who lost their lives from both sides. This is just an absurd butchery .

    If you notice carefully there is a shot of a Panzer Mk. III tank, moving through the street. By the summer of '42, these tanks were probably considered obsolete, and these guys were just doing occupational duties behind the line. All of these chassis would be turned into assault guns after the shock of running into a few T-34's during operation Barbarossa.
