## Rep. Moskowitz Condemns Greene's Nazi Claims About Ukraine
In a recent House Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) strongly criticized Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) for her baseless claims about the prevalence of Nazism in Ukraine. These claims, often echoed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, have been widely disputed by historians and experts.
Moskowitz, a descendant of Holocaust survivors, expressed his outrage at Greene's attempts to portray Ukrainians as Nazis and compare Ukraine's government to Nazi Germany. He called her behavior "disgusting" and urged her to visit the Holocaust Museum to gain a deeper understanding of the horrors committed by the Nazis.
He also refuted Greene's unfounded allegations about concentration camps and other Nazi-like atrocities in Ukraine, stating that "They're not trying to erase a people, the Ukrainians."
Previously, Greene had shared several news articles and photos suggesting the existence of neo-Nazis in Ukraine. She voiced her concern about the alleged misinformation regarding "the Nazis in Ukraine and their recruitment efforts that go all around the world."
However, historian Timothy Snyder, a specialist in the Holocaust and Eastern Europe, refuted Greene's claims, stating that the influence of Nazis in Ukrainian politics was minimal. He suggested that concerns about fascism should be directed towards Russia instead.
Greene's controversial remarks are not new. In March 2024, she had a heated exchange with British journalist Emily Maitlis at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort. Maitlis questioned Greene about her support for conspiracy theories, leading to a tense confrontation.
Greene is currently engaged in an effort to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) over his decision to bring multiple foreign aid bills to the floor, including to Ukraine.
