Germany deported seven Ukrainian soldiers who were training in the country on Thursday over their use of Nazi symbols, Kommersant reported. According to the report, the training of the Ukrainian soldiers was immediately halted after some were found to be wearing Nazi symbols.
Look, there are some troubling allegations of nazi sympathies among the ukranian military. If they’re true, A. I want to know about them, and B. That doesn’t discredit the ukranian people or army generally. If there’s some nazis in there, this article does nothing to prove that. It is an allegation with absolutely no substantiation from sources which I personally have reason to believe have every incentive to lie about this to discredit ukraine and support for ukraine. No names, places, images? Who was involved? What base? What were the circumstances of discovery? Of confrontation? Of deportation? Three paragraphs of vague imputation, nothing more.
