The Far Right Used the War In Ukraine as Training | Decade of Hate

Published on Feb 24, 2022
The war in Ukraine attracted far-right foreign fighters from around the world, who came to fight on both sides of the conflict.

Azov, a Ukrainian battalion with deep roots in the ultranationalist and hooligan scenes, drew foreign radicals attracted by its extremist politics. Others joined pro-Russian militias, attracted by the notion of Putinâ€™s Russia as a staunch defender of a traditionalist Christian Europe.

In this episode of Decade of Hate, host Tim Hume looks at how the war in Ukraine has acted as a training ground for the international far-right, giving them real-life combat experience, which they could then bring home with them.
