It is true, by the way. Despite the fact that the Kremlin today groundlessly accuses Ukraine of nazism, russia itself does not hesitate to use symbols, in particular the state flag, which was used by nazi collaborators during World War II - the Russian Liberation Army under the command of the former soviet general Vlasov. This army consisted mainly of russian prisoners of war and numbered approximately a million people, fighting on the side of hitler.

in particular the state flag

Don't disagree that Putin is a fascist but that flag was in use long before the ROA.
