Roman-Taras Yosypovych Shukhevych (1907–1950), was a Ukrainian nationalist, one of the commanders of Nachtigall Battalion, a hauptmann of the German Schutzmannschaft 201 auxiliary police battalion, a military leader of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), and one of the organizers of the Galicia-Volhynia massacres of approximately 100,000 Poles.
In June 2017, the Kyiv City Council renamed the city's General Vatutin Avenue into Roman Shukhevych Avenue.
Stepan Andriyovych Bandera (1909–1959) was a Ukrainian far-right leader, politician and theorist of the militant wing (OUN-B), who served as head of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, an organization dedicated to the independence of Ukraine but also responsible for ethnic cleansing and implicated in collaboration with Nazi Germany.
the Kyiv City Council on 7 July 2016 voted 87 to 10 in favor of supporting renaming Moscow Avenue to Stepan Bandera Avenue.
The 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Galician), known as the 14th SS-Volunteer Division "Galicia" (German: 14. SS-Freiwilligen Division "Galizien") prior to 1944, was a World War II German military formation made up predominantly of military volunteers with a Ukrainian ethnic background from the area of Galicia, later also with some Slovaks. Formed in 1943, it was largely destroyed in the battle of Brody, reformed, and saw action in Slovakia, Yugoslavia, and Austria before being renamed the first division of the Ukrainian National Army and surrendering to the Western Allies by 10 May 1945.

Unfortunately there are 'Nazi's' everywhere.....including Russia.
Sure, they vary in numbers and influence and if I'm being brutally honest its my experience and understanding that its more common throughout the whole of Eastern Europe than Western Europe.

In my opinion, there is a big difference between a Nazi hiding in the basement and a Nazi standing near the levers of government.

so in germany many nazis were allowed to live a nice life after the war, streets were named after them, squares, but then sometime in the late 60's the evil leftist youth (today cancel-culture) started to rebel against it and so over time some were unnamed but in fact unfortunately there are still many nazi streets in germany today. nazis anyway. unfortunately they don't die out. as you can see in the usa too.

"In past elections, radical right-wing parties have always performed poorly. The far-right party Svoboda came in at around two percent in 2017, and far-right presidential candidates have achieved even worse results in the recent past."
"It is no secret that in Ukraine - as in Russia and many other countries - there are individual radical right-wing groups that have little or no influence on society."

It would be better if you clarified in this post that you are only writing about West Germany.
East Germany was denazified.
