Ottawa. Canada, which has been on the agenda recently with its diplomatic tensions with India, is being shaken by a brand new crisis. The standing ovation of 98-year-old Ukrainian Yaroslav Hunka, who appeared before the Ukrainian Parliament, as a hero created a stir not only in Canada but throughout the Western world.

According to the news in HaberSol, it is not surprising that a former Nazi soldier received a standing ovation from everyone in the Canadian Parliament. NATO recruited many former Nazi officers during the Cold War.

Last Friday, in the Canadian Parliament, a 98-year-old Ukrainian-Canadian former soldier named Yaroslav Hunka was applauded by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and all members of the parliament, upon the call of Parliament Speaker Anthony Rota. Immediately after the incident, it was revealed that Hunka was a Nazi soldier from the 14th Galizien Division of the Waffen SS, who fought in Ukraine against the Soviet Union in World War II and took part in many mass murders. After the scandal emerged, many institutions and individuals, especially Jewish organizations, reacted harshly to what happened.

The historicity of NATO-Nazi friendship

On the other hand, it is not surprising that a former Nazi soldier received a standing ovation in the parliament of a Western country. After World War II, NATO and Western powers assigned former Nazi army officers to many critical positions within the West German army to use them against socialism during the Cold War.

In the post-war period, many former Nazi soldiers in Ukraine were recruited by the British foreign intelligence agency MI6 to launch an anti-communist uprising against the Soviet Union.

In West Germany, except for a few very obvious names, generally the state staff and senior officers in the army who served during the Nazi period were called to duty both to establish the new army and to organize within NATO.

The fact that US imperialism took action against the workers’ governments established in the Soviet Union and many European countries after the war was covered by Ogün Eratalay in soL last April.

Nazi grandfather of Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister

However, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is the granddaughter of Michael Chomiak, one of Ukraine’s leading Hitler anti-Semitic propagandists and recruiters for the SS troops.

Freeland, who constantly tries to keep his grandfather’s Nazi past off the agenda, is trying to make Chomiak’s role in World War II forgotten in his own country.

In addition, it is known that Prime Minister Trudeau tried to change the agenda in 2018 to dampen the rising reactions against the monuments of Ukrainian Nazis in the country.

At that time, in an article written by a Canadian journalist in The Ottawa Citizen newspaper, it was noted that Trudeau’s office had a hard time with the reactions to the Nazi monuments and that government officials were under great pressure from the prime minister’s office to take action against the news in the media about these monuments.

Considering the facts in question, Trudeau’s claim that neither he nor Zelenskiy’s delegation was aware of the parliament speaker’s plan, saying that he had nothing to do with the scandal in the parliament, also loses credibility.
