Congressman Challenges Marjorie Taylor Greene's Claims on Ukrainian Nazis

In a recent exchange on Capitol Hill, Jewish congressman Jared Moskowitz challenged Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene over her assertions regarding Nazis in Ukraine.

The confrontation stemmed from Greene’s remarks during a House Oversight Committee hearing on China, where she referenced articles alleging the presence of Nazis in Ukraine.

Greene’s comments drew criticism, with Moskowitz, whose grandparents survived the Holocaust, countering her claims by highlighting the absence of concentration camps, gas chambers, or ovens in Ukraine.

He emphasized that invoking Nazis and Hitler trivializes the atrocities committed during the Holocaust, urging Greene to visit a Holocaust museum to understand the true horrors inflicted by the Nazi regime.

The exchange underscored broader tensions surrounding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent misinformation propagated by some lawmakers. Putin’s justification for the invasion, framed as a mission to “denazify” Ukraine, has been widely criticized as a pretext for territorial aggression.
