Their whole "b-but Russia" excuse for voting no is what's called a genetic fallacy. There is never an excuse for defending nazism.
The funny part is that this supports Russia's case in the eyes of the rest of the world.
It's also funny, because the US representative takes time to explicitly point out that the US voted against this resolution since it was first proposed in 2005.
US remarks start at 1 hour 57 minutes here: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1r/k1r1ng1nb2
Really blows apart the whole argument that this has anything to do with the war.
