Welcome to a Moscow exhibition depicting NATO's "crimes" amid Russia's military campaign in Ukraine.
"NATO. A chronicle of cruelty" opened at the Museum of Contemporary Russian History in Moscow in early April, over a month after President Vladimir Putin sent troops to the pro-Western country.
According to the museum, the display is dedicated to the history of NATO including the United States' atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, despite the Western military alliance being founded only in 1949.

..."On the 1999 NATO bombings of Yugoslavia, he said: "Russia and China did not agree with... the decision made by (Bill) Clinton, President of the United States and criminals like him".
The display was put together in 'less than a few weeks' and has welcomed 14,000 visitors so far

Anyone disagreeing with the organisers' point of view is free to express their thoughts in the visitors' book, Polestrov said.
Some praised the display.
"It is necessary that children, adolescents and even many adults see for themselves how rotten the Western world is," two women, who signed their full names, wrote in a message seen by AFP.
Maria Butina, a lower house lawmaker who served 15 months in a US prison for illegally acting as a foreign agent for Russia, thanked the organisers for telling the "truth".
Other visitors blasted Moscow's narrative.
"This exhibition is Soviet-style propaganda crap," read one entry.
"There is no black and white in politics, there are only shades of grey," said another.
"Don't let the propaganda fool you. Peace to Ukraine and the whole world, freedom and wisdom to Russia!""
