"My Swastika has Curved Edges, I am not a Nazi": Ukrainian Defender Of Democracy To Dutch Media

On December 2nd, Dutch outlet RTL published an interview with one of the Ukrainian soldiers who abducted Vladimir Tsemakh from the Donetsk People’s Republic.

RTL Nieuws correspondent Jeroen Akkermans spoke with the Dmitry Gerzhan (nicknamed Triton), who was glorified as a victim, having stepped on a landmine and lost his leg. All of the tattoos and Nazi symbolism on his body and prosthetic were simply misunderstood and he isn’t, in fact a Nazi.

“In June 2019, Vladimir Tsemakh was abducted from his home by the Ukrainian secret service. That was a spectacular operation because Tsemakh’s house is located in the Russian-backed rebel area in eastern Ukraine. A Ukrainian command was killed in that operation. Another lost his leg,” the RTL article reads.

The one who lost his leg is Dmitry Gerzhan (Dima). In the video, Gerzhan tells the story of how they abducted Tsemakh (but he “forgets” to mention the physical abuse he underwent while being abducted), how his commander “Sasha” lost his life, and how he lost his leg stepping on a landmine. Essentially, he was the victim in all of it.

In the end of the video, Dima is asked if whether the swastikas on his prosthetic, the Schutzstaffel (SS) emblem, as well as the swastika tattoo on his elbow mean that he was a Nazi.

“This is an absolutely wrongopinion. We are not fascists. My swastika has curved edges, and not like Hitler’s swastika,” Dima said, providing the most innocent expression he can muster, while showing off the tattoo on his right elbow.

Thus, the obviously Nazi Ukrainian soldier is the victim in the entire situation, Vladimir Tsemakh was the villain, and this is further evidence that another special forces operation is warranted to kidnap him once more.

The excuse reminds of another absurd Ukrainian excuse, that the Ukrainian troops “thought” the Nazi insignias they were wearing on their uniforms were simply “Pirate flags.”

Separately, it appears that Ukrainian “non-fascists” are also in Hong Kong, in attempts to promote “democracy” and the true “democratic process.”

Presumably, they are present there on some sort of “experience exchange” trip. Or they could possibly be disillusion with the impending, albeit slow, de-escalation of hostilities in Eastern Ukraine, and with their experience as part of the Nazi-infested volunteer battalions they’ve nothing to employ their talents and skills towards. They may have just found a new job.

These individuals could become excellent educators in “democracy” for the Hong Kong rioters.

It should be reminded that even The Soufan Center, a US think tank, concluded that Ukraine has become the Nazi hub of the world, with white supremacists flocking the country to get educated in trained in the ways of spreading the one, true “democracy.”

Ukrainian sends Nazis. Russia sends Stalinists. Maybe we should end all this?

Jens Holm

I agree. The main problem for Ukraine and several other countries is man made contrast. Thats very bad for uniting them. Enemy talk is too overwhelming too.

Wayne Nicholson

Please provide any evidence that Russians are “sending Stalinists” to the Ukraine. The Communist party still exists in Russia and is the second most supported party in Russia next to Russia United however look up photos of these rallies and you’ll find nothing but ageing pensioners pining for the good old days. You find way more neo nazi’s among Russia’s men of fighting age than ‘Stalinists”

Chris Gr

There are picture of militants with icons of Stalin and Jesus.

Wayne Nicholson

“Stalin and Jesus”? Stalin is the guy who destroyed all the churches and killed all the priests. That’s like taking seriously a picture of Nazi’s posing for pictures with their favourite Jew and Hitler. I am sure there are some who get their ideology and iconography mixed up but to use this as evidence that “Russia is sending Stalinists” is a bit of a stretch.

Chris Gr

Yeah, it is weird. They are Stalinist Christians.

Ivanus59

Obviously he didn’t even come close to “killing all the priests and destroying all the churches”.

Wayne Nicholson

No he didn’t, he never outright banned religion but he confiscated a lot of church artwork and property, much of which he sold to the west through Armand Hammer to raise hard currency for industrialization.

Part way through WW2 he loosened his grip on the Orthodox Church and allowed priests and prayer on the front to raise moral. Stalin was nothing if not pragmatic. The priests gained influence in the Red Army while the commissars lost influence.

Ok guys, let’s use some honesty here and put a side politics for a second: that is not swastika but typical and traditional Slavic (and Hindu, btw) symbology/decoration. I give no f about these guys in the story, but these are not Nazi symbols but ethnic legacy of all Slavs. F* Nazis, they have no “their” symbols, they invented no new symbology but abusd existing one. Same for many other ideologies, movements and secret societies.

Jens Holm

I partly agree. Parts might be used as antirussian nationalisme, but as we see, those are very bad supporters for Ukraine for reforms for needed changes in Goverment structures and invstments for more jobs and more income.

Wayne Nicholson

Slavs live in Eastern Ukraine. These neo nazi militias are from Galicia in western Ukraine and are not Slavs. They fought for the Nazi’s during WW2 and continued fighting well into the 1950’s under Stepan Bandera. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Waffen_Grenadier_Division_of_the_SS_(1st_Galician) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepan_Bandera#Postwar_activity

Ivanus59

The swastika and those “SS” signs have nothing Slavic about them. They have no symbolical meaning related to Slavic culture that I know of at all. Kolovrat at least represents the sun and that is a Slavic symbol, but these people hate Slavs and love their Nazi-Germanic but also Zionist masters.

Goran Grubić HardyVeles

For the Sig (single S in the SS), check Arkaim Museum web site, that is where I read about it (it was glyph for a time measure unit). For swastika, check i.e. coat of Svarog. I mean, we can argue if that exact style (curved or sharp) ever occurred in traditional iconography (where sharp shapes are not that common, but they exist, see: Pirotski ćilim (just google it, can’t figure out translation at this point)) and we should be careful on what is real pagan heritage and what is neo-paganism. In essence, of course this guy is Nazi, I know how these guys feel about Bandera – but I still hold that what he said (particular statement, if you look at it with complete ignorance on the political context and stick to issue of symbols) is truth. Nazis invented no symbols, they just used existing. The symbols, by them self, are not good not evil – same as letters: letter U is not evil, despite being used as symbol for Ustašas (cca. Croatian Bandera followers)

Satellitte

I don’t get it something here? Why Ukrainian will use Nazi Symbol etc…. Did the Nazi starve Ukraine When they were advancing in the east /The Nazi occupation of Ukraine ended the lives of millions of civilians? And the Nazi consider Slavic people subhumans right ? So why Ukrainian want to have something who consider them like trash ? could you explain to me please.

hvaiallverden

Yeah, I bet they know about National Socialism, huh, the Nazi term was invented after the war for people whom is brain dead to use an pupolare French acronym, and the Sawstica is an universal symbol, like the Cross, witch is exactly the same as the Swastica, if fact they means the same, and was used by several nations, and now, is just an riddicilous Psy-op meme witch is basically used by morons, aka eh… far.. right?, whom mostly are Freidns of ISISrael, I whom is an hard core nationalist would not and havent considered this for nothing else than an religious and then for historical reasons only, and thats it, why the Jews ans their freidns use it is exactly that for making the nationalistic movements look bad, nothing else, Breivik and his freinds on Norwegian eh…. right, are all die hard friends of ISISrael and bows to anything the imperial banana republic do and say. And have an obscure hatred for Russian even when they them selfs are Slavs, but never forget the Turko-Mongol Khazars, where their mainland was Ukraina and souther central europa incl Crimea, the North Black sea region and they invaded europa during the 800, and from the south after loosing whats known as the Moorich kigdoms, they have one nation witch they control totally and thats Netherland, etc, to day where they rule UK.

Dont insult our intellegence with nonsense, to me this is nothing but an bad joke. Look what they do, not what they impose. I end it here, pissants. And yes, I am NOT a Slav, but 100% European, and I am more in the family of the Catalans and the Basque.

peace
