Ukraine’s Army Has a Big Nazi Problem, Ex-US Soldier Tells RT

Nazi influence in the Ukrainian military is omnipresent, John McIntyre, a former US soldier who served as a mercenary in various Ukrainian military units for almost a year, told RT in an interview.

The former soldier recounted his experience in Ukraine, and explained why he grew disillusioned with Kiev’s cause. “When I came, I was really surprised. Everybody had tattoos and Nazi symbolism,” he told Gazdiev.

McIntyre also admitted he did not believe ultra-right ideology was “that big of a problem” for Ukraine until he saw things on the ground himself.

Some other Western mercenaries also directly told him: “The Russians aren’t the Nazis, we are the Nazis,” he claimed.

At a certain point, he was “compromised” after talking to someone about the war crimes committed by Ukrainian forces. According to McIntyre, whistleblowers are treated in Ukraine even more harshly than spies.
