According to the senator, the publication of such photographs and the whitewashing of Nazism in Ukraine, which is taking place there at the moment, are interconnected.

“These are related things.

See how Europe is rising in defense of Ukrainian neo-Nazism.

They think that everything is going great and turn a blind eye to the atrocities that are taking place where the Ukrainian troops passed and where Azov and other nationalist battalions worked,” said Dzhabarov.

He also noted that the President of Ukraine "never condemned Azov."

“Yes, they are,” he said.

Definitely, he expresses the interests of those Nazis who are now in power, ”concluded the interlocutor of RT.

Earlier it became known that on the occasion of May 9, Volodymyr Zelensky published a post on his social networks, accompanying it with a photograph of a Ukrainian military man, on whose uniform the emblem of the SS division “Totenkopf” is visible.

The post was later edited: the photo was removed, but the same image remained on the Ukrainian Defense Ministry's Twitter account.
