Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland Caught Holding Pro-Nazi Scarf at Ukraine Rally
A photo taken of Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland at a Ukraine rally over the weekend caught her holding a red and black scarf representative of the Bandera movement, a far-right Ukrainian nationalist group linked to neo-Nazism.
Freeland, a Ukrainian-Canadian who sits on the World Economic Forum's board of trustees, posted the photo with the scarf to social media but then deleted it. She reposted the same message with a different photo that did not include the red and black scarf.
Freeland, a long-time enemy of Putin's, was in Kiev with her sister at their apartment during the February 2014 coup.
The Ottawa Citizen has reported that Freeland’s grandfather was the editor of a Nazi newspaper during WWII.
