→Parallels with the Waffen SS
Ukraine's [[media]] have been noticeably silent on this subject....[A]lthough Ukraine is emphatically not run by fascists, far-right extremists seem to be making inroads by other means, as in the country's [[police]] department. Ukraine's public is grossly under-informed about this. The question is, why doesn't anyone want to tell them?}}

The trainees included Azov units:<ref>https://jacobin.com/2022/01/cia-neo-nazi-training-ukraine-russia-putin-biden-nato</ref>
{{Cquote|Despite sometimes open acknowledgement of its Nazism — its former commander once said the “historic mission” of Ukraine is to “lead the White Races of the world in a final crusade for their survival” in “a crusade against the [[Semite]]-led [[Untermenschen]]” — Azov was incorporated into the country’s National Guard in 2014, owing to its effectiveness in fighting Russian separatists. US arms have flowed to the militia, [[NATO]] and US military officials have been pictured meeting with them, and members of the militia have talked about their work with US trainers and the lack of background screening to weed out [[white supremacist]]s.
Given all this, it would be more of a surprise that the [[neo-Nazi]]s of Azov haven’t been trained in the CIA’s clandestine make-an-insurgency program. And we’re already seeing the early signs of blowback.}}
