In Russia, Nazis like the Wagner group were used as cannon fodder, given poor supplies, and had their leader assassinated. In Ukraine, Nazis like the Azov battalion are directly integrated into the military command structure, given the best equipment, and are the ones using other people as cannon fodder. Some non-nazi Ukrainians sign up with the Nazi factions because it's more likely to survive than if they were snatched off the street and conscripted into a meat grinder regiment. No one in Russia is doing that, which shows how differently they are treated in each country. These Nazis are also celebrated by the west, like how Canada had a standing ovation in parliament for a literal SS veteran because he "fought against Russia in WW2."
