This is a Latvian ugunskrusts, so he might be a Latvian nationalist or just got the tattoo because it was neat, like a dumbass. Latvia uses swastikas historically separate from nazi Germany.

Ok I was pretty interested in iconography but I see you are just interested in shitting on Ukraine.

The Swastika also has a relationship to ancient Europe as well.
