1375487 2014-05-21 23:00:00 Prince Charles has compared Vladimir Putin to Adolf Hitler in relation to his actions in Ukraine. He is in trouble because he has the guts to say it how it is! His Father, Prince Philip, was always in trouble for his outspoken comments and no tolerance for bullshit.

In Britain there is freedom of speech, and in my opinion the Royals are just as entitled to express their opinions as anyone else.
Someone has said that this comment would be a grave insult to Putin as Hitler killed 26,000 Russians. So, if Putin considers Ukraine to be Russian, why is he willing to kill Russians?

Suffers I think from the little man syndrome.

That's about right. Stats are that more civilians were killed in the Soviet Union during WW2 than all who died in battle during WW1.

The comparison would probably allude to Hitler's annexation of Czechoslovakia and Putin's annexation of Crimea.

Give Putin time. In his May Day speech he said he want to reestablish the Soviet Union which is not going to be good for Ukraine and the other Baltic states around Russia..

Good on Chucky boy for saying it..

That's what I read into it. I don't think Charles would insult Putin with an attack on a personal level.

Hitler did not kill any Russians he was just a leader.
