Antisemitism? You do realize they elected a Jewish president, right?
Far right/neo nazi groups? Yeah, there are idiots like these in every country, even in Russia. Doesn’t mean the general public supports them or that they have any political power.
Banderas? He’s mostly commemorated as a nationalist who fought for an independent Ukraine. Stalin is still celebrated, yet he didn’t mind making a pact with Nazi Germany in 1939 link.

The wisest thing Ukraine could do is abandon Washington’s deluded scheme of using the war to “weaken Russia” and instead sue for peace for the sake of its people
Putin want’s to dismantle Ukraine and destroy Ukrainian identity, as stated in articles published by Kremlin over the past few months. For Ukrainians there can be no negotiated peace as long as what follows is murder, rape, pillaging and enslavement Golden Horde style.
