In Germany no, because it's a film it's art and it's (the swastika) allowed (except if it 'promotes nazi ideology')

I think the Russian stance may be different.

The same rule applies in the USA and all of the EU countries (AFAIK)

Not many people know that the reason CLoD and video games in general, can't ship with correct markings is a classification problem not a content problem.

It falls foul of a law passed to keep swastikas off childrens toys.
