    I just did a count and 45 of those 61 voters came from countries that were at one point either Axis powers or Axis properties.

    Albania: Axis property
    Andorra: neutral
    Australia: Allied power but accommodated Axis collaborators (example)
    Austria: Axis property
    Bahamas: Allied property
    Belgium: Axis property
    Bosnia and Herzegovina: Axis property
    Bulgaria: Axis power
    Canada: Allied power but accommodated Axis collaborators (examples)
    Cyprus: Allied property
    Czechia: Axis property
    Denmark: Axis property
    Dominica: Allied property
    Estonia: Axis property
    Finland: Axis power (at least unofficially)
    France: Axis property
    Georgia: Allied
    Germany: Axis power (obviously)
    Greece: Axis property
    Guinea: neutral (I think)
    Hungary: Axis power
    Iceland: Allied property
    Ireland: Allied property
    Italy: Axis power
    Japan: Axis power
    Kiribati: Axis property
    Latvia: Axis property
    Liechtenstein: neutral but complicit in Axis crimes

    Luxembourg: Axis property
    Malta: Allied property, but once under Axis siege
    Marshall Islands: Axis property
    Micronesia: Axis property
    Moldova: Axis property (kinda)
    Monaco: Axis property
    Montenegro: Axis property
    Myanmar: Axis property
    Netherlands: Axis property
    New Zealand: Allied power
    North Macedonia: Axis property
    Norway: Axis property
    Palau: Axis property
    Panama: neutral?
    Papua New Guinea: Allied property but under Axis assault
    Poland: Axis property (obviously)
    Portugal: neutral but sometimes accommodated the Axis
    Romania: Axis power
    Samoa: Allied property
    San Marino: neutral but sympathetic towards the Axis (at one point they adopted fascism as their politics)
    Slovakia: Axis power
    Slovenia: Axis property
    South Korea: Axis property
    Spain: neutral but accommodated the Axis
    Sweden: neutral but sometimes accommodated the Axis
    Switzerland: neutral but sometimes accommodated the Axis
    Tonga: Allied property
    Turkey: neutral (until 1945) but accommodated the Axis
    Tuvalu: Allied property
    Ukraine: Axis property
    United Kingdom: Allied but repeatedly accommodated the Fascists (example), despite being a victim of Fascist aggression
    United States: Allied but repeatedly accommodated the Fascists (example)


    You’d think that the descendants of somebody who presumably suffered under the Axis would have condemned German Fascism, but I guess not. If Russia likes something, that means that it’s bad, but if Russia dislikes something, that means that it’s good.
