Ukrainian Nazi Veteran Hunka, Family Hiding After Scandal in Canadian Parliament, Media Says
10:31 30.09.2023 (Updated: 10:37 30.09.2023) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - On Friday, the leader of Canada's parliamentary opposition, Pierre Poilievre, said that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is seen as a "clown" in the international community over the incident with inviting a Nazi officer to the country's parliament.
Ukrainian Nazi veteran Yaroslav Hunka and his family are in hiding amid a scandal in the Canadian parliament, media reported, citing family friend Barb Bonenfant.
On September 22, Hunka, a 98-year-old former volunteer with the 14th Waffen SS Grenadier Division, a Nazi military unit declared a criminal organization during the Nuremberg trials in 1946, was invited to the Canadian parliament Speaker Anthony Rota and lauded as a "hero" who fought against the Russians in World War Two.
Rota
resigned over the backlash that followed the exposure of Hunka's role in the notorious SS.
"Afraid to show their faces," Bonenfant said.
She said she had been unaware that Hunka had been an SS man.
On Thursday, Ambassador to Ottawa Oleg Stepanov told Sputnik that the Russian Embassy
will raise in contacts with Canadian authorities the topic of a legal reaction to the honoring of Hunka in the House of Commons.
