The President of Ukraine, Zelenski, appeared before the parliaments, the international fora and the Grammy Awards, where he spoke yesterday in the Greek Parliament, but the President took an unexpected guest.

The Communist Party of Greece decided not to attend Zelenski's hearing because it considers that the Zelenski government legitimises Nazi propaganda and that neo-Nazi groups such as the Azov Battalion are integrated into its army. Following the appearance of the battalion soldier, the Communist formation has denounced that there has been a "Nazi propaganda" in the Greek Parliament.

Alexis Tsipras of the opposition majority party, SYRIZA, has also described this appearance as "historical shame", in which four members of the party left. Most parties in Parliament, both left and right, have denounced the appearance of the Azov Battalion soldier.

Greek Government spokesman Giannis Oikonomou, for his part, described as "inappropriate and wrong" that a Batalion Azov soldier was found guilty of rape.

Former Greek Minister of Economy Yanis Varoufakis said that Zelenski has abused the invitation of the Greek Parliament.

President Zelenski disrespected Greece's Parliament by ushering into it a Nazi. Likewise with the Cypriot Parliament - where he refused to engage with its Speaker's comment that Cyprus too is a victim of an illegal invasion - even switching off his Skype in her mid-sentence... https://t.co/ftbbvI78eU

However, Zelenski’s words were received in Parliament between applause.

In this regard, they explained how Zelenski's appearance in the Greek Parliament was:

A lesson of superiority for the Spanish press and parliament. Zelenski gives the floor to a neo-Nazi from the Azov battalion in his speech in the Greek parliament, and even the Greek right shows his outrage. pic.twitter.com/0fu8OdPrTx
