Original Note:
Azov Battalion has not existed since 2014. It was absorbed into the National Guard and any far right extremists were purged. Characterizing the Ukrainian military as being nazis is objectively false, and indeed is frequently repeated Russian propaganda. https://lens.monash.edu/@politics-society/2022/08/19/1384992/much-azov-about-nothing-how-the-ukrainian-neo-nazis-canard-fooled-the-world
