Original Note:
The Azov Brigade is not "Nazi". While it originally had ties to the Ukrainian far-right, they were purged when the brigade was incorporated as an ordinary part of the National Guard of Ukraine. In contrast, Russia employs the neo-Nazi Rusich and Wagner groups in Ukraine. https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20220325-azov-regiment-takes-centre-stage-in-ukraine-propaganda-war https://www.rferl.org/a/russian-neo-nazis-fighting-ukraine/31871760.html https://yalebooks.yale.edu/2023/07/07/the-wagner-group-explained/
