Dugin is the mastermind behind Russia's Eurasia strategy to reubild empire.
No doubt Ukraine has some fascist people- most western Europe and the USA have them also- remember Charlottesville?
Many European nations during WW2 had their version of nazi toops- Croatia had the Ustazi, for exampe
But Ukraine is NOT a nazi state - that is Russian propaganda and too many in the USA are eating it up
"A peculiar dialectics employed by Dugin in his emotional statement reflects, however, something more serious and fundamental for Russian imperial consciousness and its perception of Ukraine. On the one hand, it reveals a deep attachment to the mythical, imaginary Ukraine of the brotherly, “wonderful Slavonic people”, and, on the other hand, an inability to accept real Ukrainians who do not fit the imperial myth and who meet the “brotherly” troops in their land with bullets instead of flowers. The only way to accommodate the imperial psyche to this uncomfortable reality is to deny it, to discursively relegate the real Ukrainians into the chthonic, subhuman space of cyclopes and anthropophagi, bastards and cretins, Banderites and neo-Nazis. Ukraine should be cleaned up of Ukrainians, the space emptied and “freed” for the “wonderful Slavonic people” of the imperial imagination."[1]
"On 10 October 2014, Dugin said, "Only after restoring the Greater Russia that is the Eurasian Union, we can become a credible global player. Now these processes slowed down very much. The Ukrainian maidan was the response of the West to the advance of the Russian integration." He described the Euromaidan as a coup d'état carried out by the United States: "America wishes to wage the war against Russia not by its own hands but by the hands of the Ukrainians. Promising to wink at up to 10 thousand victims among the peaceful population of Ukraine and actually demanding the victims, the United States led to this war. The United States carried out the coup d'état during the maidan for the purpose of this war. The United States raised neo-Nazis Russophobes to the power for the purpose of this war."
