On November 1-3<\/span>rd<\/span>, Georgia<\/a>n and Russian-language (1<\/a>,2<\/a>,3<\/a>,4<\/a>,5<\/a>) Facebook users have been circulating the cover of the Indian magazine \u201cAnanda Vikatan\u201d, depicting the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the Prime Minister of the UK, Rishi Sunak. The President of Ukraine is holding a can of orange paint and a brush, and in front of him is an orange swastika covering a black one. According to the attached description, Zelenskyy says the following to Sunak – \u201cWhat kind of Nazis are we? We are simply fans of Indian culture!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The circulated photo is fabricated and does not represent the cover of any \u201cAnanda Vikatan\u201d magazines. The caricature of Zelenskyy and Sunak aims to discredit the Ukrainian president by implying that the Ukrainian president has ties to Nazism.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n The Vikatan group is one of the largest associations in South India, which unites eight publications published in the Tamil language. A major weekly magazine named Ananda Vikatan has been published since 1928 and<\/span> focuses<\/span><\/a> mainly on entertainment and educational topics.<\/span><\/p>\n The photos disseminated on Facebook indicate October 31<\/span>st<\/span> as the release date of the publication. According to the official<\/span> website<\/span><\/a> of Vikatan, no issue of Ananda Vikatan has been published on that date, while neither Zelenskyy nor Sunak have been featured in any of the covers published within the last two months.<\/span><\/p>\n
