Mark Solonin (born May 29, 1958, in Kuybyshev, USSR) is a Russian historian, and author who writes about the history of World War II.[1][2] An aviation engineer by training, he has written numerous books on the Second World War. Since 2016, Solonin lives in Estonia.[3]

Early life

Mark Semionovich Solonin (Russian: Марк Семёнович Солонин) was born in Kuybyshev, USSR on May 29, 1958. His father had served with the Soviet Army in the Second World War. Mark developed strong interest in history as a boy. After graduating from secondary school with golden medal (cum laude), he decided to study not history but aviation engineering because he felt that in the USSR politics would interfere with his potential career in history.[4]

Career

Solonin's studies focus on history of the WWII and particularly the opening weeks of the Soviet-German War [5] The views of most Russian historians specializing in World War II reject his work including accusations of falsification [6] [7][8][9][10]

In 2012 Solonin criticized the new Russian Minister of Culture and revisionist historian Vladimir Medinsky as "a propagandist of the shameless Goebbels variety".[11]


On 18 May 2018, he was accepted as a member of the Russian Free Historical Society.[12] On June 14, 2020, the Council of the Free Historical Society, said,

That "recent statements by Free Historical Society member Mark Semenovich Solonin related to social developments in the United States are inconsistent with the objectives prescribed in the Charter of the VIO to "consolidate the community of historians based on the standards of professional activity and ethics", As well as "to assist the civil society in the fight against the manipulation of the historical memory and in adopting a view of the past that is adequate to the scientific ideas", Solonin was warned, "that his continuing actions that are contrary to the principles of the VIO, discrediting VIO in the eyes of the professional community and civil society, will make his further stay in the Free Historical Society impossible"[13]. The grounds for this were Solonin's note "Pogrom as a mirror", published by him on June 8, 2020, on his personal website, where, in the opinion of some readers, he indulged in anti-Semitic and racist statements[14]
