Ukraine Thread

For your consideration, how could a Russian leader respond to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjCOJoytLNY

I can see the name of the name of who posted it, and what's above the video, but it's pretty wtf. How could there not be a response?

I thought we were through with the discussion of who is more nazi/criminal/racist and so on. My argument was that every country has nutjobs, even embracing the highest positions. Pointing to them and trying to turn a blind eye upon other countries will not prove anything.
As a reply to the video you linked: the Russian leader allowed a nazi to be a deputy head of the parliament in 2003-2004:

The same position is now held by Zhirinovsky - you can google yourself and find out about his bigotric lunatic ideas.

If you mean that Putin had a right to interfere into Ukrainian events after he had seen the video you refer to, then I will say that a sober- minded leader (of any country) ought to know better than to overreact after seeing nutjobs airing their views in public. Ohterwise Obama would have started a war with Russia each time he heard Zhirinovsky speaking. And he is not a random adventurer, but a deputy head of the parliament in 2000-2011.
