Commenting on the British decision to have Ukrainian troops march in the Parade for Victory Day, Analisi Difesa editor Gianandrea Gaiani wrote: “There is no more limit to the demented propaganda drift that is rampant in Europe making a mockery of History, told as if it were a Netflix series, and of the European peoples who have lived and suffered through it.”
After having explained that “to parade the heirs of the ‘banderitas’ is to celebrate Hitler’s Ukrainian allies who also gave the Third Reich several thousand SS men,” Gaiani gives an advice to the British government:
“During World War II a great many Ukrainians, mostly from the eastern and southern regions, fought against the Nazis … but in the ranks of the Red Army! If [U.K. Defense Minister] Healey really wants to invite Ukrainian soldiers to celebrate the victory over the Third Reich, he should look for them among their ‘heirs,’ that is, among the more than 100,000 Ukrainian soldiers fighting today in Donbass integrated into the Russian army. …
“It is normal for alliances to change in 80 years, but making a mockery of History ridicules today’s leaders and will make the 272,000 British military personnel and 93,000 British civilian casualties of World War II, for whom the Ukrainian ‘banderitas’ were undoubtedly Nazis, spin in their graves.”
As a matter of fact, the British have always groomed Ukrainian Nazis. Not accidentally, London is the only capital in Europe, outside Ukraine, where one can visit a “Bandera Museum”.
