Ukraine posts Hitler and Putin cartoon in the battle of official Twitter accounts

Source: National Post

The official Twitter account for Ukraine shared a series of posts on Thursday, one of which showed Nazi leader Adolph Hitler lovingly caressing Russian President Vladimir Putin’s cheek.

The post was retweeted more than 290,000 times and had more than one million likes by Friday morning. It sparked conversations online about the Russian invasion and attack of Ukraine, capturing the attention of social media users and garnering their support.




Hours later, the account tweeted: “This is not a ‘meme’, [sic] but our and your reality right now.”

In another post on Thursday, the account asked Twitter to remove “@Russia” from the platform, saying there was “no place for an aggressor” on Western social media platforms.

This photo is famous in part because it's the last picture of Hitler while he was alive.
