In 2019, forty House Democrats signed a letter to the State Department requesting that the Ukrainian army’s Azov Battalion be designated as a Neo-Nazi terrorist organization.
Three years later, House Democrats have approved a massive spending package for Ukraine, which will wind up in the hands of the same people that they themselves admitted to being Neo-Nazis and terrorists.
The Senate approved the massive package late Thursday night, sending it to President Biden for signature. It includes $1.5 trillion in funds to keep the federal government operating as well as $13.6 billion in emergency help for Ukraine.
In 2019 they questioned why certain “white supremacist groups,” notably the Ukrainian Azov Battalion, were not put on the Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO) list in a letter signed by 40 US House Democrats and addressed to then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Since then, the battalion has been portrayed as ultranationalists, Ukraine’s finest weapon, and everything in between by western journalists. The Neo-Nazi battalion, on the other hand, is praised in Ukraine for its discipline, strong motivation, and efficacy in defending Mariupol from Russian-backed terrorists from the puppet “republics” in the east.
The involvement of Neo-Nazi foreigners in the unit has also sparked criticism. This element of Ukraine’s army is “linked to recent terrorist attacks across the world, as well as recruiting and influencing American people,” according to House Democrats in 2019.
