Unprovoked, NATO began arming and training Ukrainian military and para-military [[neo-Nazi]] forces after after 2014 [[Obama administration]]-backed [[Maidan coup]] which overthrew the [[democracy|democratically]] elected administration of [[President Viktor Yanukovych]].  In 2018, the U.S. Congress barred funding for the neo-Nazi [[Azov Battalion]]; NATO proceeded to train Azov Battalion Nazis in [[Canada]] as part of [[the West]]'s supposed "rules based order."  The neo-Nazi Azov Battalion, which was incorporated into the Ukrainian National Guard after the Maidan coup, had been conducting an unrelenting war policy of ethnic cleansing against civilians in the [[Donbas]] region since 2014.  Azov's International Department trained [[white supremacist]] protesters in the 2017 [[Charlottesville]] march.
