Combating glorification of Nazism is a series of UN resolutions voted on every year since 2012 in the UN General Assembly. The full title of each resolution is "Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fueling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance". The only country to have voted "No" all 10 times is the United States of America. Other states that voted "no" prior to 2022 are Ukraine (7 times), Palau (4 times), Cape Verde (3 times), Kiribati (once), and Canada (once).

Most European countries abstain every year, while countries in Africa, Asia and South America nearly all vote "Yes". In 2022, more than 50 countries voted against the resolution,[1] including Australia, Canada, Japan, the USA, and all of the European Union.[2]
