Some delegation leaders, following Trudeau's example, chanted the Bandera slogan during a group photoshoot on Saturday. In January, the Russian Justice Ministry added it to the list of Nazi slogans.
"The slogan was made during the official photo session of the peace conference on Ukraine on Saturday evening in Buergenstock. Neither Confederate President Viola Amherd nor Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis joined this slogan," Eltschinger said.
In two videos, Cassis can be seen speaking as some delegates join the Nazi slogan, while Amherd is smiling.
Switzerland is hosting a high-level conference on Ukraine at the Buergenstock resort outside of Lucerne from June 15-16. Russia has not received an invitation, but even if it had, it would not attend the conference, Vladimir Khokhlov, the spokesman for the Russian Embassy in Bern, told Sputnik in April.
