When a right-wing populist regime’s military ambitions and economy are in trouble, it’s only a matter of time before it starts trafficking openly in anti-Semitic lies and canards. The Putin autocracy, with its programme of the “self-cleansing of society” is no exception. If – as is likely – there is no apology for this toad’s statement, Russia is going to be an even more difficult place to be Jewish in the near future.
They’ve already tried, along with other fascists around the world.
