Vladimir Putin's narrative to justify the Ukraine war as a "denazification" operation to rid the country of its Nazi overlords has failed, according to a state media expert.
During the first months of the invasion, Putin and his Russian propagandist cronies claimed the Ukrainian public was in peril and being routinely oppressed by its fascist dictators without a shred of evidence to prove their wild theory.
The Kremlin and its media apparatus then started pumping out the word "denazification" through their channels to justify Moscow's full-scale invasion, which it called a "special military operation" to liberate the former Soviet territory.
