Jesus Fuck. I was expecting this was fake, but it's not. Here's the AP article, it's image number 4 in the scroller thingy. Here's that dude's Wikipedia page.
It's one thing when eastern Europe plays it fast and loose with that period of history, but I expect better from my own government.
Edit: It looks like they've already apologised.
The US never apologised did they?
Remember when they invited Nazis to Capitol Hill?
Those were neo-Nazis, not Nazis.
And you imply there is a stark difference?
Not at all. Only that there is a difference and the distinction is noteworthy when talking about actual WW2 Nazis.
