          Government of Ukraine has consistently refused to do anything to reign in Azov and is in fact supporting it alongside Canada and other NATO countries.

          If four men are sitting down to dinner with a Nazi, there are five Nazis at that table.

            :stalin-stressed: taking the country employing nazi mercenaries at their word of being antifascist

            Ukraine is neither ruled by Azov or has the ability to project that terror group beyond its borders

              Even if Russia was every bit as Neo-Nazi as Azov, then the situation would not be any different than if Fascist Italy had turned on Nazi Germany.

              Let them fight.

            maybe but wiping them out to a man is an unreasonable objective as they can recuit. Just make their treatment as a criminal group a condition of the peace

              I have no doubt that at least the leadership of Azov being extradited to face trial will be one of the peace terms. Terms that would not happen without force.

                i'm not morally opposed to what has happened nearly so much as I am about what will continue to happen if it isn't resolved quickly.

                Let the dead bury the dead my concern is with the living

          Stalin’s mistake was thinking the Germans would abide by it

          This is what I meant. Making peace with Nazis and thinking that they'd somehow abide by it is folly.

          no he didn't expect them to abide by it hence the intense soviet military buildup between then and when the Nazis attacked
