8:56Now PlayingWe speak with Ukrainian American journalist Lev Golinkin about the rise of the far right in Ukraine. Golinkin says Russian bombing of the sacred Jewish site of Babi Yar disproves Putin's claims that the invasion is about "denazification," and attacks on cities in eastern Ukraine show he does not care about Russian-speaking Ukrainians either. He also speaks about the neo-Nazi presence within his home country, saying, "Ukraine's far right is the primary benefactor on the Ukraine side of this war because they now get to attract people from all over the world, and they get to be seen as on the frontlines of fighting for white civilization." He adds the presence of neo-Nazis in Ukraine "does not give Russia any reason, any justification, to invade an inch of Ukrainian territory."
