Tempi (Italy): Member of Ukraine Parliament honors heroic Waffen SS, 2013
quote:
Oleg Pankevich, a member of Svoboda party, took part in a ceremony of commemorating the establishment of the 14th Division of Waffen SS, created in April 1943 by Otto von Wachter, the nazi commander.
▪️World Jewish Congress: WJC urges Ukrainian Orthodox Church leader to act against glorification of Nazi soldiers, 2013
quote:
We are also deeply concerned that Oleg Pankevich, an MP from the ultra-nationalist Svoboda party, took part in the reburial ceremony in Gologory. The leaders of Svoboda, make anti-Semitic speeches. In this context, Svoboda leader Oleh Tyahnibok's references to a "Jewish-Muscovite mafia" take on a sinister significance"
▪️A video coverage clearly shows the MP is not just present but actually honors the SS soldiers:
▫️kisses the cross;
▫️sings the Ukraine anthem;
▫️speaks of the SS heroic struggle to defend Ukraine;
Full honor ceremony for the true Heroes of Ukraine!

CIA: Stepan Bandera was a terrorist, 1948
quote:
Stepan BANDERA, who since the beginning of his political career has been anti-Russian and anti-Polish, is probably the most important Ukrainian nationalist leader today, together with Andrei MELNYK. He was a member of the terroristic organization OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists) and was involved in the assassination of (fnu*) PIERACKI, the Polish-Minister of the Interior.
When Col. Eugene KONOWALETZ was murdered by the NKVD in Rotterdam, BANDERA did not accept the nomination of MELNYK as head of all Ukrainian nationalist organizations throughout the world.

The Guardian: Ultranationalist group with neo-Nazi links says it has been driven to action by ‘impotent’ police, 2018
quote:
“There’s nothing inherently wrong with national socialism as a political idea,” says Alexei, another militia member, as the men move stealthily through moonlit trees frosted with ice. “I don’t know why everyone always associates it immediately with concentration camps.”*
... for many observers the ceremony [the torch-illuminated show, where militia members swore oaths] in Kiev was reminiscent of 1930s Germany.
P.S. *Indeed Alexei, We have no idea why national socialism is associates with concentration camps. It's a mystery you'll surely solve. We believe in you!🧠
But wait you'll have to explain to us why torch-light marches in Kiev are too associated with nazis. It's another puzzling mystery...🤔

The Guardian: Ukraine bans 11 political parties. 2022
quote:
Eleven Ukrainian political parties have been suspended...
Most of the parties affected were small, but one of them, the Opposition Platform for Life, has 44 seats in the 450-seat Ukrainian parliament.
....
The political move comes as Zelenskiy aims to further assert his influence over the country’s media sphere. On Sunday, the Ukrainian leader signed a decree that aims to unite all national TV channels into one platform, citing the importance of a “unified information policy” under martial law.
==end of quote==
P.S. It's nothing new for Ukraine. It all started a long time ago, after the cursed Maidan...
BTW, Before that Zelensky has banned TV Channels

Amnesty International: Communist Party ban is a decisive blow for freedom of speech in Ukraine, 2015

Banning the Communist Party in Ukraine is a flagrant violation of freedom of expression and association and should be immediately overturned, said Amnesty International.

...
In 2015 a spate of politically motivated killings remain unresolved and journalists and media known for criticising the current government have been harassed.

El Pais: La anexión rusa de los territorios ucranios anula toda posibilidad de diálogo, 2022
quote:
The Ukrainian president is visibly irritated when asked about the dozen pro-Russian parties banned by Ukraine in these months of war, accused of being agents of the invading country. This issue has raised suspicions in European left formations.
“Which parties have been banned in Ukraine? The Russian parties, you mean?” objects Zelensky.
“If there is someone in Brussels worried about them, let them find a place for these games there. I would like to see how they coexist with those parties when they show them their European values”, he suggests.
P.S. Will Brussels be happy working with those 11 banned parties? Who knows? But Zelensky sure has withheld the best of the democratic political spectrum for the benefit of Ukraine:
▫️neo-fascist The Right Sector party;
▫️neo-nazi The Azov's regiment National Corps party;
▫️neo-nazi Svoboda party;
He will not share these liberal-to-the-bone parties with anyone!

Snowden posted a joking picture on Twitter about those who blame "Russian bots" for political failures.
The image is the cover of a non-existent book noscriptd "Everyone I Disagree With is a Russian Bot".
"A children's guide to justifying political failures by the media and the government," reads the cover.

Across social media, Ukrainian police and law enforcement officials are apologizing for one officer’s slur aimed at far-right ultranationalists and making it known:
They, too, are “#Banderites”
Or, to be clear, supporters of militant Ukrainian nationalists who collaborated with the Nazis during World War II.
“I apologize, I’m also a Banderite! Glory to Ukraine!” post by Serhiy Knyazev (Chief of the Ukrainian National Police).
“I am Bandera and am a police officer! I serve the Ukrainian people!” post by Oleksiy Biloshytskyi (First Deputy Head of the Department of Patrol Police).
