The Nazi influence on modern-day Ukrainian politics is clear, tangible, and willfully ignored by its Western supporters. A cursory look at the documents regarding the foundation of the Ukrainian state would make it appear quite European and democratic, which is exactly the reason why many might have dismissed Vladimir Putin’s talk about neo-Nazis in Ukraine as rhetoric and propaganda. The truth, [...]

Ukrainians wanted to change their regime and sought the help of the West to do so. Eight years on, the results look disappointing.
