===Denazification===
While the Soviet Union was successful in denazifying the German population of [[East Germany]] in the post-World War II period, armed resistance by Ukrainian fascists continued until 1954. The Soviet Union never was completely successful in denazifying the Ukrainian population as it had the German. This was due to a sparser population spread out over a far greater expanse. Schools, the [[civil service system]], and the military were de-nazified, and the armed fascist resistance went underground. Some moved abroad in the Ukraine diaspora. Display of Nazi flags, insignia, and [[holocaust denial]] were made illegal as it had been in [[West Germany]], [[Czechoslovakia]], [[Austria]], [[Denmark]] and much of Western Europe. Since 1991 however the freedom of expression has allowed the children and grandchild of Nazi collaborators to move above ground and express a lingering [[xenophobic]] hatred for anything Russian after the experiences of the [[holodomor]] and the unjust persecution of the families of Nazi collaborators in the [[Cold War]] period by the Soviet communist regime.

Many of these children and grandchildren of Nazi collaborators moved back into the Ukrainian civil service after 1991, or became active leaders of anti-Soviet and anti-Russian resistance abroad in the Ukrainian diaspora, in the United States, in the [[UK]], and in Western Europe.
