“Moscow knows that if it calls its enemies “nazi” enough that the Western media will have to either accept this terminology or debate it. This will leave some people thinking “maybe the Russians have a point” or at least some of them will subconsciously think of “Nazi” when they think of Ukraine”.
“Russia was learning how to influence the West. They knew that there are enough people who won’t ask questions and hunger for “alternative” media or “independent” reports that are not part of the “corporate” media in the US. Even if this media is run by Moscow it is still considered “dissidents” and “critical.”
“Russia believed that if the West was keyed into these terms then it would accept at face value the claim that Ukraine was “nazi.” Russia had also used these claims in the past about Ukraine, making it seem that its conflict in Ukraine since 2014 was against “nazis.”
The NAZI thing is backfiring with Israel who might know a thing or two about the subject.
Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid.
“After the Kremlin claimed that Israel supports Nazism, I have just one question. Is there any non-Nazi country in the whole world in Russia’s point of view? Except Syria, Belarus and Eritrea, of course,”
Cue the Russian propaganda.
