    Wikipedia strives for a neutral point of view. Anyone going on about ‘nazis’ in Ukraine and their Jewish president is pushing a Russian POV.

    Russian propaganda is slowly being excised.

      ‘Wikipedia’ is just the platform. This would not be the first time pages have been edited to push a narrative.

      All of the sources I checked in the early page versions on ‘nazi’ and ‘azov’ were from Western/US media, so you can hardly say it’s ‘Russian propaganda.’

      What actually is happening (I believe) is that the page has been edited since, to put Ukraine in a more favourable light so they gain more support in the war.

      This could well be pushed by the US and not Ukraine, to continue the Russia vs US narrative, with Ukraine being just another pawn.
