Poland seeks extradition of Canada’s applauded Nazi veteran
Poland’s education minister has announced he has “taken steps” toward the possible extradition of Ukrainian Nazi veteran Yaroslav Hunka after the Canadian parliament accidentally honoured him.
It comes after the former Waffen SS soldier received a standing ovation in Canada’s House of Commons for fighting against Russia in World War Two.
The Polish official described Canada’s address during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit as “scandalous”.
“I mean maybe we should be giving the Speaker of the House a medal,” Sky News host Caleb Bond said.
“He’s managed to smoke out the Nazi and now they’re going to take him back to Poland and give him his just desserts.”
