"During a recent trip to frontline areas near the encircled strategic city of Pokrovsk, the Ukrainian president, his chief of staff, and commander-in-chief visited the 1st Azov Corps from the National Guard of Ukraine, and they found themselves standing next to a neo-Nazi flag, awarding soldiers who appeared to be wearing SS bolts on their arms. Actually, that PR debacle (which the international press has dutifully ignored) occurred at another command post — a brigade from the National Guard’s 2nd Khartia Corps."

For those who want to learn more about the Nazification of Ukraine and the Neo-Nazi Banderite movement, in the diaspora and in Ukraine itself, you should follow this substack ( https://azovlobby.substack.com/ ) and its sister substack ( https://banderalobby.substack.com/ ).

They do great work covering the internal politics of the Ukrainian Nazi movement and its western supporters that is rare to find anywhere else. Some of the articles are paywalled but there is plenty that is free to read that is extremely educational for those who really want to delve into the details of this topic.

This year’s “corps reform” in the National Guard of Ukraine (NGU) elevated the 12th Azov and 13th Khartia brigades, which still exist within the larger units. It was the 4th Rubizh brigade that Zelensky visited from the 2nd NGU corps, another “elite” unit, which has two battalions (3rd and 4th) affiliated with the far-right political party “Svoboda.” Upon closer inspection, the “SS” troops were “trolling.” Their chevrons did not contain Nazi runes but a stylized 44, as in “4th brigade, 4th battalion,” as well as the fascist “44 Rules of Life of a Ukrainian Nationalist” from the 1930s.

We're still doing the irony cope 11 years into this "revolution". fucks sake
