In early April, an article appeared in the stream for many Russians. The state news agency RIA publishes an article entitled “What should Russia do with Ukraine”, written by philosopher and cyclist Timofej Sigitsev.
Timofey Sergeev is Putin’s spin doctor
In the article, Sergetsev wrote that Ukraine was ruled by a Nazi leadership – and that the majority of the population was Nazi.
– These are things that may have been thought of before, but not mentioned. But now is the time, says Joanna Milen, a correspondent for Swedish Russia Radio.
In his pre-invasion speech, Russian President Putin said that Ukraine is in fact a Russian territory that was mistakenly abandoned, without consulting the Russian people. Christian Gerner, Professor Emeritus of History, recognizes the pattern in his mind.
It is very similar to the great German Empire that Hitler dreamed of, says Professor Christian Gerner.
