Russia may send a request for the extradition of SS man Hunka

Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Canada's refusal to extradite would be delicious.

[Regnum] After honoring 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka, a veteran of the SS Galicia division, in the Canadian parliament, Russia may initiate a criminal case and also send a request for his extradition, said the Russian Ambassador to Canada Oleg Stepanov .

“Russia is studying history with Hunka. It is possible to initiate a criminal case and subsequently send a request for his extradition ,” says the diplomat’s statement published by the diplomatic mission on the social network X.

Earlier, Stepanov noted that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau , by inviting a Nazi who served in the SS Galicia division in the last century to the country’s parliament, outraged the history of Canada and its citizens. According to him, after the Cold War, Ottawa specifically created favorable conditions for the Nazis and Banderaites.

As Regnum reported , representatives of Jewish organizations, a number of European politicians, as well as the authorities of Poland and Belarus sharply criticized the Canadian authorities. Poland said it would consider sending a request to Ottawa to extradite Hunka.

According to the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov , the crimes of the Nazis have no statute of limitations, and therefore the Canadian authorities must extradite SS man Hunka to Poland if an official request is received from Warsaw. Honoring the Nazis betrays the memory of those who fought against Nazi Germany and its allies, Peskov added.

The leader of Canada's parliamentary opposition, Pierre Poilievre , expressed dissatisfaction with what happened in parliament and said that the state's reputation had been shaken after the invitation of the Ukrainian nationalist.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, commenting on the scandal, accused Russia of “provocation” and “disinformation,” and shifted responsibility for what happened to the Speaker of the House of Commons, Anthony Roth, who resigned , saying that he was reporting this decision “with a heavy heart.” " Official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova , commenting on the resignation of the Speaker of the House of Commons of Canada, noted that he was made a “scapegoat.”

Peskov said that Canada should extradite SS man Hunka to Poland

[Regnum] The crimes of the Nazis have no statute of limitations, and therefore the Canadian authorities must extradite SS man Yaroslav Hunka (Ukrainian: Gunka) to Poland if an official request is received from Warsaw, press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov told reporters on September 27.

“We believe that Canadian authorities have a responsibility to bring this criminal to justice, or to hand over to those who intend to bring him to justice. There is hardly even any place for a trial here,” the presidential press secretary said.

As for the passion of the current leaders of the Kiev regime for Nazi ideology, this is not news, and the head of this regime, Vladimir Zelensky , by applauding the Nazis, thereby betrays the memory of those who fought Hitler’s Germany and its allies, including the memory of his own grandfather, Peskov noted.

As Regnum reported , on September 21, 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka, a veteran of the SS Galicia division, was invited to a meeting of the Canadian Parliament dedicated to Zelensky’s visit. Speaker of the House of Commons of Canada Anthony Rota, to the applause of the audience (including Zelensky and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ), introduced Hunka as “a fighter for Ukrainian independence against the Russians during the Second World War.”

Representatives of Jewish organizations, a number of European politicians, as well as the authorities of Poland and Belarus expressed sharp criticism of the Canadian authorities. Poland said it would consider sending a request to Ottawa to extradite Hunka.

Trudeau, commenting on the scandal, accused Russia of “provocation” and “disinformation,” and shifted responsibility for what happened to the Speaker of the House of Commons. Anthony Rota resigned on September 26. Official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova , commenting on his resignation, noted that Roth was made a “scapegoat.”
