The use of Nazi symbols is banned in both Germany and Russia. Russia has condemned Western support for Ukraine, including the training of its soldiers.
The German Defense Ministry reported that, as of September 19, 2023, about 7,000 Ukrainian soldiers have trained in Germany since the start of the war in Ukraine. Earlier in May, it was reported that Ukrainian soldiers would train in Germany on how to use the Patriot air defense system. Such a training course typically lasts between six and nine months.

Real Nazis
Here we have actual, bona fide, card-carrying, anti-semitic Nazis on the Western side being supplied with copious amounts of weapons. Meanwhile, anyone who opposes the mass slaughter of Palestinian people must be an anti-semite and a Nazi. If we believe the corporate media, that is.

Ahaha!
Weren’t we repeatedly told that Ukraine being full of neonazis was just “Russian propaganda”?! Clearly their armed forces don’t mind.

Probably another pro-Russian hoax
The source of this information is "Kommersant" a Russian newspaper! Do you really think that they can be capable if telling the truth. Shame on the author for quoting them! Your just another pro-Putin Ukrainophobe. More than million Ukrainians died during WWII and another 4+ million during the Holodomor at the hands of Ukrainophobes like you!
