It’s Azov, so this kind of symbol is sadly not a surprise. I don’t like it, and Ukrainians should understand that those symbols are very bad publicity.

But the ones who *behave* like SS are the Russians. SS symbols are not on their flags, they are in their mind. That is why I support Ukraine. Putinism is the new fascism.
