Russia accuses Israel of ‘supporting Nazism in Ukraine’

The Russian Foreign Ministry accused Israel of supporting the “neo-Nazi regime” in Ukraine.

“We drew attention to the ahistorical statements of Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid, largely explaining the course of the current Israeli government to support the neo-Nazi regime in Kyiv,” said the Russian Foreign Ministry on Twitter.

The Russian Foreign Ministry published a link to its article with selective examples of Jewish cooperation with the Nazis during the Second World War. The article also repeats the words of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov that “the Jewish origin of the president is not a guarantee against rampant neo-Nazism in the country.”

According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, the Israeli government ignores “the epidemic of destruction and desecration of monuments of the real righteous peoples of the world – the soldiers of the Red Army who stopped the Holocaust and saved the Jewish world,” and “what really exists in Ukraine is the most terrible anti-Semitism and Romophobia, which would have been unthinkable not so long ago.”

The article ends with the traditional accusation of Nazism in Ukraine: “such ‘state-building’ is especially immoral for a country that lost 1.5 million Jews during the Holocaust, and where the capital has a memorial to those who died in Babi Yar.”

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov mentioned the Jewish roots of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and said that “Hitler also had Jewish blood.” Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba condemned Lavrov’s statement.

  1. Israel : show some integrity and denounce nazi RuSSia clearly for what it is and what you have known it to be for decades.

  2. Israel has been quite reluctant to send Ukraine any real military aid to prevent endangering its relationship with mafia land. Does Israel still want warm, cozy relations with a country filled with fascists who claim that Hitler was part Jew and accuses it to back (nonexistent) Nazis in Kyiv?
    Time to grow a spine, Israel! Help Ukraine and dump your fake friendship with the fascist crime syndicate.

    • Imagine that, Russian nazis that kidnap, rape, torture, steal and murder telling Jews that the victims of those tragedies are themselves, nazis. The cynicism of the Putinazis is unparalleled. Anyone that tried to redefine what nazis are should be imprisoned in a cold dark hole for a few years to think about it.
