While Western media deploys Volodymyr Zelensky’s Jewish heritage to refute accusations of Nazi influence in Ukraine, the president has ceded to neo-Nazi forces and now depends on them as front line fighters. Back in October 2019, as the war in eastern Ukraine dragged on, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Zolote, a town situated firmly in the “gray zone” of Donbas, where over 14,000 had been killed, mostly on the pro-Russian side. There, the president encountered the hardened veterans of extreme right paramilitary units keeping up the fight against separatists just a few miles away.
Elected on a platform of de-escalation of hostilities with Russia, Zelensky was determined to enforce the so-called Steinmeier Formula conceived by then-German Foreign Minister Walter Steinmeier which called for elections in the Russian-speaking regions of Donetsk and Lugansk.

I think you are a Russian bot spreading their crap, ask yourself.....do you think anyone bloody cares?
If you can’t pound the facts, pound the table. Or sling personal insults.
Why not inform yourself and read a lot? It’s fun. And you can increase your vocabulary.
I was assuming at least a few people who read FR would be interested in some facts about a current event.
Some entities want a big war for their own nefarious reasons. Hopefully they will not succeed.
“If you had studied and learned, open source info, you would know that the neo Nazis in Ukraine are actual, real, Nazis.”
You pretty clearly know nothing about Nazism. It has two foundations:
* German nationalism
* Anti-Semitism
A bunch of Ukrainians working for a Jewish leader by definition can’t be Nazis.
“The fact that I am Jewish barely makes 20 in my long list of faults”
OOOOOOOKAY, so Judaism is a fault? Christianity perhaps is a fault? Maybe Buddhism also?
So if religious beliefs are a fault, and our nation is a religious one but does not recognize a particular religion of the state, then why should we be involved???
Jewish support of the Dems has always been a little contradictory too.
Not this Russian flehm, why would anyone care right now?
If it gets his country out of a sling, make a deal with them....people are dying .... so even if true, who gives a rip, it isn’t relevant right now?
Unless we’re stupid.

Well, duh, dr J and Mr Dementia in the White House, kumalong in second place, and mostly morons in charge. Whaddaya think is gonna happen next?
Don’t mind me, I’m in a mood. There are no Good Guys in this conflict. Sorry for the dead people, civilians and others, but in an unrelated story that gets no attention, there are starving people in the world somewhere, and don’t forget women, children, and the environment.
Elections have consequences, How ever the votes got counted. Wear your masks, sheeple.
Nothing good is going to come from this conflict. And that seems to be the plan.
Great post.
“Zelensky got 70% of the vote in a country of 40 million people. Even the opposition conceded the win.
But, still the whole country is Nazis. Really?”
No one.NO ONE! Is saying the “whole country is Nazis”.
And Zelensky probably did not run on a platform featuring being a Jew. He won because he was a huge celebrity on Ukraine television.

‘Meet the new boss’
Very well thought out comment
I have been reading about the Nazi battalions in Ukraine, even in the mainstream press, like the NY Times and the Wall Street Journal, ever since Yanukovych was overthrown in 2014. But nowadays, there is a very pronounced effort to cover it up.
A couple of years ago, the EU pronounced the Svoboda party to be a neo-Nazi organization, incompatible with European values.
They appear to have a very small percentage of political support among voters, but nevertheless have been given influential positions throughout the government.
So that’s who got the helmets Germany sent.
He made peace with them a month after the elections, even though to get rid of them was his election promise. Now it takes Russia to do it for him.
Various flavors of national socialist parties exist in Russia too
