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.<ref>https://www.academia.edu/6387532/War_against_the_UPA_1944_1954_Soviet_Counterinsurgency_Challenge_in_Western_Ukraine</ref> The Soviet Union never was completely successful in denazifying the Ukrainian population as it had the German. This was due to a resistance insurgency spread out over a much 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 Ukrainian diaspora. Display of Nazi flags, insignia, and [[holocaust denial]] were made illegal in Soviet times 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 grandchildren of Nazi collaborators to move above ground again 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.
