Ukrainian Struggle Center - via Twitter:

“But why is the Idea of the Nation sign sometimes called “Nazi” in the media? The reason is Russian propaganda.”

https://twitter.com/UA_struggle/status/1606281847427604480

“The Idea of the Nation was first used as a symbol of Ukrainian nationalism in 1992 in Lviv by activists of the SNPU (Social National Party of Ukraine).”

https://twitter.com/UA_struggle/status/1606280266556837888

“Various organizations, from the Kharkiv-based Patriot of Ukraine to the Social Nationalist Trade Unions, have used the Idea of the Nation in various forms since the 2010s.”
