The world community needs to recognise that units using Nazi symbols should not operate in Ukraine, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has said.
“International society would have to recognise that units that use Nazi signs and which often act in this way, judging by everything, cannot fight in Ukraine,” Robert Fico said during a visit to the Holocaust Museum in the Slovak town of Sered, he was quoted as saying by the TASR news agency.
According to the politician, information about such formations is hushed up because of the geopolitical situation.
“We all talk about fascism, Nazism, but at the same time we silently tolerate the fact that there are units running around Ukraine that have completely understandable designations referring to movements that we consider dangerous and forbidden today. Since we are talking about a geopolitical struggle, it does not matter to anyone,” Fico added.
Earlier, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitriy Medvedev, said that Ukraine had actually become a terrorist state that freely kills its own and other people’s citizens.
