🇺🇦 “Ukraine is the only nation to have a Nazi formation in its Armed Forces.” (The Nation, 2019)

Before the pesky US-NATO proxy war narratives took hold of the air waves, and billions washed through the country, the West felt at duty to tell the truth about #Ukraine. Image
“Post-Maidan #Ukraine is the world’s only nation to have a neo-Nazi formation in its armed forces. The #Azov Battalion was initially formed out of the neo-Nazi gang Patriot of Ukraine.” Image
“In the fall of 2014, #Azov—which is accused of human-rights abuses, including torture, by Human Rights Watch and the United Nations—was incorporated into Ukraine’s National Guard.”

These human rights atrocities have not stopped. #Denazification #Ukraine Image
“In 2017, Congressman Ro Khanna led the effort to ban Azov from receiving U.S. arms and training. But the damage has already been done: The research group #Bellingcat proved that #Azov had already received access to American grenade launchers…” Image
Azov’s aim is to transform #Ukraine into a hub for transnational white supremacy.

#Azov “has recruited neo-Nazis from Germany, the UK, Brazil, Sweden, and America; last October, the FBI arrested four California white supremacists who had allegedly received training from Azov.” Image
Ukraine is the only country that encourages Nazism at the state level.

Former Speaker of Parliament Andriy Parubiy cofounded & led two neo-Nazi orgs: the Social-National Party of #Ukraine (#Svoboda), and Patriot of Ukraine, whose members would eventually form the core of #Azov. Image
Azov – “Even more disturbing is the far right’s penetration of law enforcement. Shortly after Maidan, the US equipped and trained the newly founded National Police, in what was intended to be a hallmark program buttressing Ukrainian democracy.”

#VadimTroyan #Ukraine Image
“The fact that #Ukraine’s police is peppered with far-right supporters explains why neo-Nazis operate with impunity on the streets.”

#Azov #AzovstaI #Bandera Image
“Ukrainian extremists celebrate Ukrainian #Nazi SS divisions…in the middle of a major Ukrainian city.”

— Anti-Defamation League Director of European Affairs, April 28, 2018

Some things never change…

“Washington’s decision to ignore the proliferation of armed neo-Nazi groups in a highly unstable nation only led to them gaining more power.”

#Ukraine #NazisInUkraine Image
🚨Nazis In Ukraine – “America’s backing of the Maidan uprising, along with the billions DC sinks into post-Maidan Kiev, make it clear:

“Starting Feb. 2014, #Ukraine became Washington’s latest democracy-spreading project. What we permit in Ukraine sends a green light to others.” Image

May 28 – Former #Azov Commander Maxim Zhorin "Mose" confirmed the formation of new units “on the same principles and ideological foundation as the legendary AZOV regiment.”

They presented patches to the soldiers of the new sub unit - SSO AZOV #Kharkov. Image
May 28 – The formation of new AZOV units (comprised of 1,000 #Kharkov residents for 2 subunits) is undoubtedly a response to the mass surrender of AZOV in Mariupol that depleted their ranks.

Anatoliy Sydorenko was appointed as commander of the new sub unit - SSO AZOV. #Ukraine Image
There is dissent with regard to #Azov Konstantin Nemichev training civilians (1,000 Kharkiv residents who now form 2 new subunits in Kharkov "Volunteers Tro".)

Head of the SBU in Kharkiv region, Roman Dudin suggests "only official formations will act in case of aggravation.” Image

What does denazification mean?

Putin clearly defines #Ukraine’s undeniable Nazi problem.

Remember, in 2018, in a bipartisan letter, 50 US lawmakers slammed government-backed events hailing Nazi-allied militias.

“In bipartisan letter, 50 US lawmakers condemn new legislation, slam government-backed events hailing Nazi-allied militias.”

“It’s particularly troubling that much of the Nazi glorification in #Ukraine is government-supported.”(2018)

Why do western media outlets covertly peddle neo-Nazi propaganda?

March 3, PBS @NewsHour published and promoted an interview with neo-Nazi Ukrainian mayor, Artem Semenikhin, without disclosing his allegiances to Adolf Hitler and #Ukraine’s own Nazi sympathizer Stepan #Bandera.
Fascinating how #Ukraine neo-Nazi propaganda manages to slip past a vast network of collective West disinformation-fighters, fact-checkers, Bellingcats, etc – all allegedly set up to protect us from Nazis.

In fact, PBS likes to interview #UkraineNazis.

The March 3, PBS @NewsHour interview with neo-Nazi Ukrainian mayor, Artem Semenikhin, and his blurred-out picture of Nazi collaborator Stepan #Bandera tells you everything you need to know about US-Western coverage of the Ukraine-Russia conflict.

Ukraine serves “as a training ground for the extremist right… Ukrainian military units like #Azov Battalion and Right Sector. Both organizations have known ties to an international network of neo-Nazis & active positions on the frontlines of the war in eastern #Ukraine.” (2020)
“The conflict in eastern #Ukraine is to the white supremacists what Afghanistan was to the Salafi-jihadists in the 80’s and 90’s,” said Saltskog.

“Remember, al-Qaeda, for which the English translation is ‘The Base,’ was born out of the conflict in Afghanistan.” @VICE (2020)
“Travelling to #Ukraine allows American neo-Nazis to gain actual combat experience to bring back home.” @VICE (2020)

🚨Zelensky party deputies propose new law to allow Ukrainian Armed Forces commanders to *kill* their soldiers in order to stop mass surrenders and flight from positions.

Bill number: 7351

#Ukraine #Donetsk #Luhansk Image
More Ukrainian soldiers lay down arms and refuse to fight as they plead for help amid the realities of being outgunned and under equipped.

This is the demoralized remnant of the 14th brigade of the UAF 4th, 5th and 6th companies (or rather, what’s left of them). #Ukraine
A collapse of the UAF 🇺🇦 is imminent.

Ukrainian soldiers of the 13th battalion of the 58th brigade publicly denounce Zelensky for using them as “cannon fodder” – many are conscripts who attest to never using a weapon prior to the current conflict. #Ukraine
