He was not introduced as a Nazi, but as a WW2 veteran that fought against Russia.

So he was introduced as a nazi then? He was introduced as a ukrainian ww2 veteran who fought against Russia. Aka a soldier of the third Reich.

Is your issue that "oh but they framed it in a good way, how can you blame him for clapping for a nazi when the nazi was introduced in a favorable light."? Do you expect the prime Minister of a country not to know basic facts about the largest war of the last century?

Two comments above someone called it "the finer points of WW2"...
