⚡️📣Proof Ukrainian Nazis were In Soledar⚡️📣
While in Soledar We met with a soldier of the PMC Wagner that showed of a wall of millitary inginias that the had taken from dead or captured Ukraine soldiers. Amoung these were many Ukrainian and foraing millitary insignias like the American flag. After reviewing the footage I noticed that an German Iron Cross containing a swastika was present.
The Iron Cross was a military decoration in Nazi Germany (1933–1945). The design, a black cross pattée with a white or silver outline, was derived from the insignia of the medieval Teutonic Order and borne by its knights from the 13th century.
During World War II, the Nazi regime made their own version by superimposing a swastika on the medal. The Iron Cross was usually a military decoration only, though some were awarded to civilians for performing military roles, including Hanna Reitsch and Melitta Schenk Gräfin von Stauffenberg for being civilian test pilots during World War II.
Below is a link to my full report from the center of Soledar
A peace process supported by the US will have to include American rights to agricultural and minerals in Eastern Ukraine now owned by Russia. That was the price for Lend Lease.
