An anti-immigrant Neo-Nazi rally took place in Ukraine with the slogans “Ukraine for Ukrainians” and “Sieg Heil”.
Visible are the red and black OUN flag (WWII Nazi collaborator organization responsible for pogroms and massacres) as well as Right Sector and Svoboda (far right Neo-Nazi organizations that led the 2014 Maidan coup):

Ukrainian nazis consider all non-Ukrainians subhuman. The OUN wanted to get rid of all jews, russians, hungarians, tartars and greeks on what they consider ukrainian territory.
Yeah but but they sucked up to and worshipped the Germans. Because those were fellow Aryans.
Never mind that the Germans looked at Ukrainians as just another flavor of Russians and made no distinction except where they could use them as useful idiots against other Slavs.
(Also, don’t forget Poles. The greatest massacres and atrocities committed by Ukrainian nationalists were against Poles. And to this day the Kiev government refuses to even apologize, and glorifies the perpetrators of those massacres. Which makes it all the more pathetic how Poland is siding with them now just because they share a hatred of Russians.)
Eh. I know Ukraine and its nazis have a positive relationship with Canada. Are the nazi Ukrainians racist against white Canadians? According to you, they are. I would argue otherwise.
You are right. Like most Eastern European Nazis, they look up to Western and Northern Europeans who they consider fellow racially superior Aryans.
Ukrainian nationalism is a form of Slavic self-hatred. They hate and consider themselves superior to those who are most like them (Russians, Poles, Russian speaking Ukrainians), and they worship those who look down on them as inferior for being Slavs.
That’s why they have to invent the most absurd things to rewrite their own history claiming they are descended from some ancient super-humans who were the original Aryans and who built and invented everything, and they are not the same as other inferior Slavs who are actually “asiatic”.
The Baltic Nazis do the same. They practically worship the ground Germans walk on. That’s why they were extra-brutal toward Jews and other “subhumans” in WWII, sometimes shocking even the Germans, because they wanted to go above and beyond to prove themselves and show that they were part of “the superior race”.
They practically long for the days when they were colonized by the Teutons. That’s why they jumped so eagerly at the first opportunity to be part of the EU-NATO Fourth Reich.
