Portraying the war as a fight against Nazism is a recurring theme of Russian propaganda and disinformation, intended to delegitimize Ukraine and, more generally, the West. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rusich_Group https://yalebooks.yale.edu/2023/07/07/the-wagner-group-explained/ https://european-security.com/key-narratives-in-pro-kremlin-disinformation-nazis-2/ https://euvsdisinfo.eu/report/the-west-creates-a-nazi-coalition-against-the-slavic-people-russia-and-belarus https://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2022/opinion/russias-long-history-of-neo-nazis https://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2022/opinion/russias-long-history-of-neo-nazis
