President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, speaking about the 96-year-old former Buchenwald prisoner Borys Romanchenko, who died in Kharkiv from Russian shelling, said that every day it becomes more and more obvious what Russian "denazification" is.

"Borys Romanchenko, a former prisoner of Nazi concentration camps, was killed in Kharkiv. He was 96 years old. Just think about how much he went through! He survived in Buchenwald, Dora Mittelbau, Peenemünde and Bergen-Belsen - in the death conveyors created by the Nazis. And he was killed by a Russian shell that hit an ordinary Kharkiv high-rise building... With every day of this war, it becomes more and more obvious what it is for them - denazification," Zelensky said in a video message on Tuesday night.

Borys Romanchenko was reportedly killed by a Russian missile in his own apartment in Kharkiv. He will be buried at the expense of the city budget.
