How is it a hit piece when he literally sat down with them and asked them to walk him thru those days.... They talked about yutsenkos poisoning making him a sacred victim helping him win in 04. I thought it was informative and was the most long winded straight forward I've heard from Putin on his worldview and actions.

Of course I was dissatisfied by the lack of subs in that scene especially when they had them readily available for all the interviews and other cuts from the past but it gave me a more rounded view.

The us backed the neo Nazis, knew they were neo Nazis/had heritage in the SS since after WW2 but still backed them and provided escape for their leaders while the USSR was after them.
