Informative summary of #Azov history and role in #UkraineRussiaWar. Based on other information the "#Azov-spirit" is really a reflection of a broader nationalist base that includes most of @ZelenskyUa's closest advisors - so needs no "Nazi party" - it's a pervasive #deepstate.

@ZelenskyUa ... and here's a very enlightening article covering an even larger period (from WWII till #UkraineRussiaWar ), showing how #fasism of a specifically #Ukraine kind could establish itself as a #deepstate within #democracy but outside it's processes.

#Ukraine #deepstate settling old scores from 2014 #Euromaidan-coup. Remember: Yanukovich was democratically-elected president - the LAST to represent both ethnicities, which implied good relations to #Russia - and that was his crime, in the view of ONE:

This video ties it all together re #Ukraine government's role in #UkraineRussiaWar, from #Euromaidan till today - as #Ukraine's pervasive #fascism inevitably goes along with #narcissism and the irresistible urge to brag. #RusslandUkraineKrieg

Linking to a continuously updated thread by @I_Katchanovski on whitewashing of #Azov despite the well-known role it and related far-right groups and militias play in #UkraineRussiaWar, #Donbas all the way back to #Euromaidan.

Linking to another continuously updated thread by @I_Katchanovski on his research on the "prequel" to the #UkraineRussiaWar, viz. the #Euromaidan-coup - and the role played by Ukraine #fascism that gave rise to (but not only!) #Azov.

... and this is a kind of "post-quel" to what happened in the #Euromaidan-coup - never properly investigated (except by @I_Katchanovski) and key information suppressed for obvious reasons - as seen at a court-hearing DURING #UkraineRussiaWar.

@ZelenskyUa Splicing in an older thread on #Ukraine #fascism relevant to #UkraineRussiaWar into my current thread on that topic.

For the sake of completeness adding a revealing interview with @arestovych wherein he prophesies the #UkraineRussiaWar and explains its rationale - in 2019. Became aware of it via @Conn18149866. Answer to tweet has video with subtitles.

Also for the sake of completeness, an interview with @OleksiyDanilov by @APNews 4 weeks before #UkraineRussiaWar. Notable: #MinskII will not be fulfilled, #Ukraine feels able to fight #Russia (= they WANTED to). apnews.com/article/russia…

Another example for the pervasive #fascism in #Ukraine's regime - unable to keep their mouths shut because their PRIDE in it DEFINES them. But no major harm - they are unconditionally sanctified by the "Gods that be" - after all #USA sets a VERY low bar🤷‍♂️ reuters.com/world/europe/u…

With #propaganda successfully portraying heroic #Ukraine defending #Europe against evil invader #Russia in #UkraineRussiaWar it is worth re-visiting the starting-point #Euromaidan-coup, where the ONGOING trial proves that it is based on an evil myth.

As commented, #Ukraine #fascism's ideological hubris is inherently "loud-mouthed" and so cannot help betraying true intentions in #UkraineRussiaWar. As "official" as it gets from
