It was Stalin who called the Nazis “Right Wing”. The Communist front groups in the West repeated the new Stalin-approved definition.
One can be to the right of Stalin and still be FAR to the left.

Stalin always referred to the Nazis as "Fascists", calling them "Nazis", or "National Socialists", would have been admitting that they were fellow socialists.

It’s interesting to note that the Soviets (and other Communists) always referred to the Hitler’s followers not as Nazis but as “fascists”.

Nazi = National Socialist, and the Commies did not want to remind anyone of that.
