DISINFO: Nazism is on the rise in Germany again, which is...

SUMMARY

Nazism is on the rise in Germany again, which is proved by re-edition of Adolf Hitler’s book “Mein Kampf”. USA, Canada and Ukraine support Nazism because they voted against a UN resolution condemning the “glorification of Nazism”.

RESPONSE

German polls show that the number of people sympathizing with neo-Nazism is decreasing: bit.ly/1YWopnH, . // US, Canada and Ukraine have voted against a UN resolution condemning the "glorification of Nazism” but do not support Nazism. Background for Ukraine: mfa.gov.ua/en/press-center/news/30034-vistup-predstavnika-ukrajini-na-debatah-tretyogo-komitetu-ga-oon-pislya-golosuvannya-projektu-rezolyuciji-borotyba-z-gerojizacijeju-nacizmu-ta-neonacizmu, , for Canada www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/11/26/canada-united-nations-nazism-resolution_n_6228152.html, and for the US: www.un.org/press/en/2014/gashc4124.doc.htm, "Speaking in explanation of vote before vote, the representative of the United States said she had joined other countries in expressing abhorrence for attempts to promote Nazi ideology, and condemning all forms of religious or ethnic hatred. Her delegation was concerned about the overt political motives that had driven the main sponsor [Russia] of the current resolution. That Government had employed those phrases in the current crisis in Ukraine. That was offensive and disrespectful to those who had suffered at the hands of Nazi regimes. Therefore, the United States would vote against the resolution."
