Alon, Reminder, re the tankie meme about Ukrainian collaboration with the Nazis: all occupied countries in WW2 had collaboration. South Korea was even run by collaborators like Park Chung-hee. Some countries had more collaboration with war crimes (Lithuania), others less (Italy). Russia and Ukraine were both pretty bad, if not Lithuania-bad. The main difference is, Russian nationalists play down the role of their collaborators where Ukrainian nationalists used to play it up in opposition to Russia.
