Europeans warn: "The Kremlin is not lying, they exist"
From the beginning of the war in Ukraine, there was talk again about enigmatic military detachments, the Foreign Legion and other paramilitaries.
Source: B92Of all the military units in Ukraine, the Azov Battalion is the most intriguing.
The Austrian daily "Osterreich" pointed out that there is a neo-Nazi
regiment "Azov" in Ukraine, which is under the command of the Ministry
of Internal Affairs and which is fighting against Russian forces.
The paper emphasizes that this is not Kremlin propaganda, but that this regiment exists.
A paramilitary formation with about 2.000 fighters was formed during
the Ukrainian crisis in 2014 to help the army fight pro-Russian
separatists in eastern Ukraine, the daily added. The paper points out
that the headquarters of the neo-Nazi regiment is in Berdiansk in the
south of Ukraine.
As in 2014, members of this volunteer
regiment of ultranationalist and Nazi attitudes are fighting in
Mariupol. Their emblem was also used by the SS troops of the Third
Reich.
Members of the Azov Regiment have excellent contacts
with right-wing extremist groups and neo-Nazi parties in Europe, and
their supporters are now calling for support through social media.
"Osterreich" states that the "Azov" regiment is an argument for the
Kremlin, which justified the military operation by alleging
"denazification" of Ukraine. The paper reminds that the UN also
documented several crimes committed by members of the "Azov" regiment in
Donbas.
The paper also reports that the Russian media are full
of information about the attacks of the Azov regiment on residential
buildings in Mariupol, but it also adds that these allegations cannot be
trusted.
