Interviewing Ukraine's Far-Right Soldiers (EDIT: by a left-wing youtuber and no the interviewed is not a Nazi, by a long shot) (www.youtube.com)

In order to get a better grasp of Right Sector and Ukrainian Ultra Nationalism, [DylanBurnsTV] went to a Right Sector base to interview a fighter who has been fighting with their paramilitary group since 2014, when Russia invades Ukraine and sponsored separatists in eastern Ukraine.

This is the first part of a two part interview, with this part covering Yaroslav's (Right Sector Fighter) background, his views on Russia, his politics, and even his views on the LGBT community. The next part we release will cover his time fighting the infamous Wagner group during the battle of Bakhmut.

EDIT: I see I should've given a bit more context in the beginning, judging by the downvotes. Overall the guy interviewed is a far cry from a Nazi and would probably fit right in with the conservatives here in Germany (CDU right wing), hold your horses this isn't Russian propaganda but actually insightful.
