What a character. Ukrainian internet for example is celebrating his death because he supported annexation of Crimea. Most other people should celebrate because he was unhinged racist fuck who publicly called Caucasians (as in people from Caucasus, not white Americans) "cockroaches" and called for killing them. He was also once kicked out from Yabloko, Russian liberal (in context really meaning right-center to far right) party for being way too fash for them.
The West takes the idea of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" too far. The West would literally ally itself with the Nazis to fight off the ~~communist~~ Russian threat.
Didn’t we ally ourselves with the Russian communists to fight the nazi threat though
