MODERATORS
I would like to draw attention to the following nations who voted no:
Albania - Andorra - Australia - Austria - Belgium - Bosnia and Herzegovina - Bulgaria - Canada - Cyprus - Czechia - Denmark - Estonia - Finland - France - Georgia - Germany (Federal Republic of) - Greece - Hungary - Iceland - Ireland - Italy - Japan - Kiribati - Latvia - Liechtenstein - Lithuania - Luxembourg - Malta - Marshall Islands - Micronesia (Federated States OI would like to call out and shame each nation who voted aganst this resolution, why it will make me feel betterof) - Monaco - Montenegro - Netherlands (Kingdom of the) - New Zealand - North Macedonia - Norway - Poland - Portugal - Republic of Moldova - Romania - San Marino - Slovakia - Slovenia - Spain - Sweden - Ukraine - United Kingdom - United States
I would also like to draw attention to the nations who where present for the vote, but still could not decide to vote to oppose Nazis, and Abstained:
Bahamas - Dominica - Guinea - Myanmar - Palau - Panama - Papua New Guinea - Republic of Korea (Occupied South of Korea) - Samoa - Switzerland - Tonga - Tuvalu - Turkey
all nations I have not mentioned either voted yes (Nazis are bad), or did not have a delegate present, and I do not feel it important to place a light on nations who do not have a permanent delegate to the United Nations, or for what ever reason missed this vote.
Always the same map

Canada: Allied power but accommodated Axis collaborators (examples)
Cyprus: Allied property

You’d think that the descendants of somebody who presumably suffered under the Axis would have condemned German Fascism, but I guess not. If Russia likes something, that means that it’s bad, but if Russia dislikes something, that means that it’s good.
