Six key cabinet positions are held by the Swoboda party, which is openly neo-Nazi. Here’s an article after the first two posts were filled:

I don't think that's correct.

The Social-National Party of Ukraine was the openly Neo-Nazi party. They disbanded about 15? year ago. Their support in Ukraine was about one-half of one percent at that time.

From that disbanded party, Svoboda Party sprung out. They publicly dis-avowed Neo-Nazism. They now claim to be a nationalist party and their support has risen to about 10% of the voting publicly.

Of course there is no telling what may slither out from some of the former SNPU party members who now belong to Svoboda. We've seen at least a couple of anti-semitic quotes from Svoboda Party members.

But in a similar manner there are Russians who are members of several political parties in Ukraine who think Stalin is a hero.

That's the same Stalin who starved to death 7 - 10 million ethnic Ukrainians.
