In 2018, Razum published a Facebook post expressing support for Richard Williamson, a member of a fringe Catholic breakaway movement who was convicted of Holocaust denial in Germany.[4][5][6][7][8][9]

In January 2019, Razum and Croatian mathematician Josip Pečarić published a book titled Razotkrivena jasenovačka laž ("The Jasenovac Lie Revealed"), which denies that the Ustaše operated an extermination camp at Jasenovac, arguing instead that it was a forced labor camp.[10]
