One would think that following the prevalence of the counterrevolution in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the anti-communist campaign that was unfolded during the Cold War would end. Not only did this not happen but, on the contrary, the attempt to slander socialism-communism continued unabated and, in many cases, it was instrumentalized, mainly in the United States and the European Union through the establishment of institutions and foundations, having as a sole purpose the falsification of history. Within this context, by an unanimous decision of the U.S Congress in 1993, the notorious Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation (VOC) was established, with a stated mission of “educating Americans about the ideology, history and legacy of communism”(1).
