    Show me anywhere in the world that has open Nazi units serving in the military.

    Show me anywhere in the world that openly celebrates Nazis as national holidays.

    Show me anywhere in the world that renames streets, shopping malls, stadiums after Nazis.

    Show me anywhere in the world that runs Nazi indoctrination camps for children.

    I can show you all of these for Ukraine.

    Over to you. Darling.

      Latvia comes immediately to mind, which coincidentally is one of the most zealous supporters of Ukraine and USA.

        Legionnaire day is not an officially recognized public holiday in Latvia since 2000.

            98 to 00, yes kinda. It really was a remembrance day for Latvian soldiers, 1st and 2nd legion who won a battle against red army. Unfortunately those legions were part of Waffen-SS.

      All of the Balkans do that too. Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia have open nazis and fascists serving and commanding their militaries. Croats after the Ustaše, Bosniaks too. Serbs on the other hand glorify the Chetniks, rehabilitate mass murderers and anti-communist war criminals (rehabilitated Nikola Kalabic a few days ago as we speak). There is no city in Bosnia that has not got a street, school or sport club named after a Ustaša, or a Chetnik or a Bosniak radical muslim fascist. That doesn’t only happen in Ukraine. Greece, Bulgaria, Romania they all do it too.
