77 years after WWII, both sides of the Ukraine war keep making appeals against Nazis, lol.

Ukraine president asks Jewish people around world to speak against Russia
[...]
“I am now addressing all the Jews of the world – don’t you see what is happening? It is very important that right now, millions of Jews around the world do not remain silent. Nazism is born in silence,” said Zelenskiy.

Later on Wednesday several prominent groups representing Holocaust survivors condemned Russia’s claim that its military action in Ukraine is aimed at “denazifying” the country.

“The signatories of this appeal denounce the use of the words ‘denazification’ and ‘genocide’ to justify the attack on Ukraine... We cannot accept that these words are tarnished in this way,” read a statement signed by representatives from the committees of several former Nazi concentration camps, including the International Auschwitz Committee, and those of Dachau, Buchenwald-Dora and Ravensbrueck.

Under Vladimir Putin, the Soviet victory in the second world war has become a major building block of Russian national identity, and Putin has attempted to portray modern Russia as the inheritor of this proud anti-Nazi heritage, even as his government has targeted minorities, reduced freedoms and is now waging an expansionist war.

Russia alleges, that since the Maidan revolution in 2014, Ukraine has been run by a far-right cabal, with Putin refering to the government in Kyiv as “a band of drug addicts and neo-Nazis”.

Azman, who was born in Leningrad, now St Petersburg, recorded an angry appeal to Russians and Russian Jews on Tuesday, clutching a Torah and criticising the lack of public outcry in Russia against the war.

Any guesses on why EU elites are so willing to accept refugees from Ukraine, but not other war-torn areas:
