In reply to the discussion: A note about the 'Azov Regiment' [View all]SunSeeker
(58,375 posts)Hit the little speaker on Google translate, you will hear it spoken in Ukrainian with an N and an I. The Azov Regiment (they don't call themselves the Azov Batallion, like in your Russian propaganda posters) does not use the Cyrillic alphabet for their insignia, they use the Latin alphabet, hence the "A30."
You digging up years-old random pictures does not prove who is in the steel factory in Mariupol NOW. Some of those posters you posted, like the one you have entitled "Poster of Ukrainian Battalion Azov, faithful successors of German Nazis," written in English, is obviously Putin propaganda created for Western consumption. As is the one saying the Azov Batallion was "created by Kiev's junta." Kiev is the Russian spelling of Kyiv. Kyiv is not run by a "junta." Ukraine is run by a democratically elected Jewish President. Why post that Putin garbage here? We know that is what Putin is saying about them. Why amplify that shit here?
The current Azov Regiment says they're not Nazis. Why insist they are? Who does that help but Vladimir Putin?
