He was the leader of the Soviet Union, a different state.
What's a bit more problematic here is that they integrated the batallion (still linked to a controversial movement) into their own ranks during peacetime. It was poor judgement; they should've been fully integrated within the armed forces and nobody would've cared anymore. (But did the government have enough pull to exact such demands?)

Would the UK ever integrate the IRA (very hypothetical I know)? And let them wave an Irish flag and let them use their old insignia? Or would Spain allow for Basque or Catalonian brigades?
If you look back a bit you’ll find the azov Regt we’re formed in 2014 as a direct result of Russian intervention in the Donbass region, with the goal of facing off against the pro-Russian separatists.

Fast forward to earlier this year and you’ll note that Putin committed the neo-nazi Wagner group to the fight.

Putin had no intention of de-nazifying Ukraine in reality he put nazis into Ukraine.
 
Yea let's ignore Nazis. That's a sensible approach.
Let’s talk about both sides then - let’s talk about the Wagner group.

Let’s have a Nazi-off. Whose got the worst Nazis?

They are all equally repugnant.
But you never mentioned them before only Azov?? As I posted earlier - they only came into existence due to Putin’s games in the Donbas.

Putin stirred the pot on both sides - plants in Ukrainian community whispering that the native Russians are bad, stealing our jobs and women. Grey figures in the Russian communities of the Donbas, beating up local Russians and blaming it on ukes.

Before too long there’s murders on both sides then all out war - Russia then predictably comes to the aid of the native Russians and Azov are formed to protect Ukranian interests in the region.

Classic Russian power-play. Russia and Putin created the Nazis and then threw in Wagner for good measure.
 
No one is ignoring nazis, merely pointing out that vlad is still murdering innocent men, women and children on the back of the now defunct Azof brigade
It seems like you have fallen hook, line and sinker for his denazification line!!

The Denazification line is complete nonsense. You dont stop Nazis by invading them.

Murdering people in war is awful.

But Nazis do exist in Ukraine and were armed by Zelensky. Thay was morally repugnant.

All 3 can be true simultaneously mate.
