[REGNUM] French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves le Drian's statement that the popularity of neo-Nazism in Ukraine does not exceed the European average raises questions. On July 31, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova wrote about this in her telegram channel .
"Now I am already shocked, because everyone has long known about the Azov battalion, but not about the fact that in Europe is even worse," writes Zakharova. "And here questions arise not to Kiev, but to that part of Europe for which neo-Nazism, it turns out, is not a threat."
According to her, these questions should be asked in international organizations, for example, in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
We will remind, earlier the French senator Natalie Gulet said that during her visit to Kiev, she witnessed how they openly trade in Nazi symbols, and also record volunteers in the neo-Nazi regiment "Azov".
In turn, at the request of Gulet, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian noted that neo-Nazis are indeed present in Ukraine, but they are "of little influence."
As reported by IA REGNUM , in June in Kiev, a farewell ceremony was held with Orest Vaskul, the chairman of the Kiev regional brotherhood of "veterans" of the OUN-UPA and a member of the SS Division "Galicia." . The ceremony was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, in particular the honor guard of the Separate Presidential Regiment named after Bogdan Khmelnitsky.
The deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Oleksandr Dubinsky, noted that the President of the country, Volodymyr Zelensky, would soon be able to be addressed only as "Der Fuhrer."
