    You can hear what he’s saying: Mask tol’ko shto ZIGANUL, nu, nash chilovek

    The “zig” in ziganul means “Sieg” aka the “zig” in zig-zag as in the Nazi salute.

      Ok let me rephrase. I don’t trust that a ukranian newscaster went on tv and said “we are nazis just like elon musk,” so is there any other context that would indicate this isn’t a sincere “I love hitler and bandera” statement?

        Fair point, that I don’t know though. All we know is that 1+1 is a major Ukrainian TV channel owned by Igor Kolomyskyi, the pro-Maidan Ukrainian-Israeli oligarch.
