Camp Azov
The Azov Battalion was an infantry unit formed in May 2014 with about 900 men.
The Azov battalion was made up of members of the ultra-nationalist "Ukrainian Patriots" group and the neo-Nazi Liberal Party, and was formally incorporated into the Ukrainian National Guard on November 12, 2014
In 2014, in addition to the formation of the Azov battalion, there was another important event
That is the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine.
Conflict in eastern Ukraine
Ukraine
After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Ukraine became independent.
Ukraine covers an area of 603,700 square kilometers, most of which is in the plains of Eastern Europe.
Black land accounts for two-thirds of the country's land area, and although the land area is small, it can be regarded as a country with excellent land resources.
Most of Europe's grain is imported from Ukraine, which is known as the "granary of Europe".
Geographical location of Ukraine
Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe, next to Russia. It's like Russia's gateway to Western Europe.
With the end of World War I and World War II, the world pattern slowly took shape.
During the Soviet era, Ukraine was still within the scope of the Soviet Union. Although the Soviet Union collapsed, Russia remained strong. Powerful enough that the Western countries began to be jealous.

As the saying goes, "the skinny camel is bigger than the horse", although the Warsaw Pact was dissolved, NATO is still there.
After the Middle East and the Balkans were in a mess, NATO turned its attention to Russia, which had just undergone disintegration.
Without the checks and balances of the Warsaw Pact, NATO countries began to accept Eastern European countries to join NATO in an attitude of "open doors".
If Russia stops it, it will be labeled as a violation of the sovereignty of other countries
But imagine that NATO itself is a military bloc. The United States behind it is even more eager to control the entire world.
If the Eastern European countries bordering Russia join NATO, it is not NATO's "door open", but Russia's "door open"
When NATO expanded eastward, Russia was silent. NATO will feel that Russia is cowardly. Whether it is a person or a military group, greed will become more and more serious.
Before NATO's eastward expansion, Russia was reluctant but ultimately had no military action. But Ukraine is NATO's last door to Russia.
Nazism and the Azov Battalion
The Azov battalions were imbued with neo-Nazi, ultra-nationalist, and white supremacists.
Neo-Nazism aimed to perpetuate the Nazi spirit, to maintain racial purity, and to emphasize the superiority of the race.
White supremacy is easier to understand, that is, to think that white people are inherently racially superior and exclude non-Caucasians.
Remarkable civilizations are the credit of the "white race", who believe that they have gained acumen and wisdom from their reforms in the grim North
Originally Nazi
Nazis are no stranger to us, and the word often goes hand in hand with fascism.
The main idea of the Nazi party was to stand against Marxism, the ideology of the Communist Party. Strive to promote the theory of racial superiority and inferiority, the theory of individual dictatorship and the theory of living space.
In the eyes of the Nazi party, "genocide" was the norm.
Massacre of Jews
For example, Nazi Germany's "ethnic cleansing" in World War II caused the deaths of 6 million Jews.
The Jews of that time were living as original sin.
Innocent Jews who had been arrested, detained, and lured across Europe had come up with a method of killing that was both fast and frugal with weapons and ammunition—poison gas killing.
At the same time as this heinous crime was committed, the Nazi parties were no longer human.

Activities in which camp Azov participates
Although the Azov battalion has always denied that it has neo-Nazi ideas, everything it has done is related to the Nazis, and the soldiers of the Azov battalion have Nazi-related tattoos
In addition to creating armed conflict in Ukraine, before the epidemic, the Azov battalion could also be seen in the riotous crowd in Hong Kong.
Although the Azov battalion was small in number, they were making waves everywhere and stirring up national sentiments. Lest the world be chaotic.
Ukraine suffered hundreds of civilian casualties in two conflicts in 2014 and 2019, and today's Russian-Ukrainian war is no longer a military conflict but a war.
Conflict in Ukraine
In the July 14 hong Kong violent attack on police, 13 police officers were injured.
Riots in Hong Kong
This neo-Nazi ideology is exactly what Western countries want to incite national emotions and cause riots, and these Azov battalions, which are likely to harbor neo-Nazi ideas, have become a great hidden danger in the future.
The ridiculousness of racial hierarchies in Nazi thought
Industrial Revolution
The Industrial Revolution, which began at the beginning of the 20th century, did allow the Western countries to develop a big step faster than most Eastern countries.
Subsequently, because of this imbalance in development, the Western countries launched a war.
When they saw that we were backward at that time, they began to divide the human race into self-esteem.
After the war, the countries of the East learned their lessons and developed rapidly.
In particular, the mainland, with its vast territory, has become a major country that is now an important player in the world. But some western ideas from the last century are still deeply rooted.
I'll borrow a phrase
"In a country like China, which has a deep cultural heritage of 5,000 years, it has long learned to be tolerant. And the method of grading by blood and race, in today's China, only pets can be ranked according to this rule."
