I don't see any "Neo-Nazi banner" (nor a "pro-Nazi banner"). The colors are of the Right Sector guys, is that it? You could call them Neo-Banderovites (lite) and you'd be right, but Bandera spent half of the war in Sachsenhausen (where one of his fellow inmates was Stalin's son) while his followers were killing German occupiers (among others).
But it still feels bizarre how warmly a Pole could be welcomed in for example their UPA theme pubs (with waitresses in uniform and all). About one of such placed, but also the politics of all that: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-29569510
In other news, Chechen troops were just officially offered bounties for the heads of "Banderovites" among others. Up to $500,000.
RS is, as I said, Banderovite-lite. They don't even hate Poles anymore.
And in fact they didn't even do in the late 1940s when the UPA cooperated with the Polish anti-communist resistance forces in some actions. Notably the joint raid on Hrubieszów in 1946:
Under the threat of the common Communist enemy, in order to cease fratricidal struggle, and to carry out joined operations, “Młot” realized the necessity of setting up some sort of collaboration with the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (abbr. UPA - Ukrainian: Українська Повстанська Армія (УПА), "Ukrayins’ka Povstans’ka Armiya"). Hence, “Młot” and several others commanders from that region managed to prepare one of the most daring military operations in the history of the post-war Poland. During the night of May 27-28, 1946, the combined forces of WiN and UPA assaulted the Communist-controlled city of Hrubieszów. https://www.doomedsoldiers.com/attack-on-hrubieszow-1946.html

Ukraine just needs to learn how to be diverse, and that means being minority Ukrainian and majority Russian.
its been accused that those are one of the far right groups in ukraine, the other one has confirmed neonazis, idk if that one does as well.
