    In Germany, the far left and the far right are most definitely pro-russia, each for their own reasons. The far right loves a Führer-like figure and that “minorities” are being actively discriminated in Russia, the left still considers Russia as being “anti-imperialist” even though Russia is definititely acting imperialistic af. And they are anti NATO. Russia considers both the german far left and far right as useful anti-NATO and anti-EU idiots, which aligns with their intentions. Thus they provide funding and relevance to them.

    However, left/right moderates and liberals are pro Ukraine and they are the majority.
