    Tbh I think the Nazi's aren't a major factor myself. I think that they'll take some heavy losses during this fighting, but I don't think Putin cares enough to make it a sticking point, and I don't think Ukraine wants that in the history books so they'll just play dumb about it.

        "Denazification" in Ukraine, as well as "democratisation" of Iraq, is propaganda terms meant to justify the war. In practice it can mean everything, from shooting every last Nazi in the Ukraine to just dissolving the Azov battalion. As long as Russia gets something with a denazification label on it they'll be happy

        I think the nationalist appeal is exactly why he made it part of his speech and is going to make it a mission objective, but I think recognizing and protecting an independent Donbass does the trick there, which I would expect to happen.

      He’s going to need to publicly trial and punish some Nazis, for domestic propaganda at the least. That was one of the casus belli and from what I’ve seen on Russian telegram they care about it a lot
