Diplomat Polyansky: the world will learn a lot about Nazism in Ukraine after the special operation

The world will learn a lot about Nazi-glorifying Ukraine and Canada after the end of the special operation. About it stated First Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN Dmitry Polyansky in a commentary to RIA Novosti.

“I think that after the end of our special operation, the world community will learn a lot about what is actually happening in Ukraine and Canada, as well as in some other countries where Nazi collaborators are openly glorified,” he said.

According to Polyansky, the incident with honoring the veteran of the SS Galicia division Yaroslav Hunk (Gunko) in the Canadian Parliament is just the “tip of the iceberg.” He called the country’s government hostage to neo-Nazi ideology, since the descendants of Nazi collaborators live there.

On September 22, Speaker of the House of Commons Anthony Rota invited Gunko to a meeting of the Canadian Parliament with the participation of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky. The SS veteran was presented as a war hero and honored with applause. Rota later apologized “to every Holocaust survivor and World War II veteran” and then resigned. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, speaking in the House of Commons, called the incident a disgrace “for all of Canada” and also apologized to Zelensky and the Ukrainian delegation “for the position in which they were placed.”

Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov previously noted that the Canadian authorities are obliged to extradite and bring Gunko to justice. October 20 IC of Russia in absentia presented Gunko was accused of genocide during the Great Patriotic War. A criminal case was initiated under Art. 357 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (genocide), which provides for punishment from 12 to 20 years in prison or life imprisonment. Later the Ministry of Internal Affairs announced Gunko is wanted.
