The Russian Embassy in Canada reiterated this message in a letter shared on Twitter on Tuesday, stating that “crimes once morest humanity and violations of international humanitarian law are being committed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and groups neo-Nazis like Asov”.

Which does not make the Ukrainian government and its army “neo-Nazis”, as you can imagine. Context.
