Only in Russia do you hear the words of Adolf Hitler used to justify an invasion of another country, and then turn it around and call it "denazification." Leonid Slutsky used "One country! One president! One victory!," an almost straight translation of Hitler's "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer!"
If you're confused by all this, don't worry. It's not supposed to make sense. Slutsky's comment was later somewhat mysteriously erased from the official recording. Of course.

Many politicians and public figures spoke at the memorial service of nationalist and pro-government journalist Daria Dugina at the Ostankino television center. They spoke of “martyrs’ blood” and a “death for victory” and threw accusations at Ukraine and the “demonic West”.
Leonid Slutsky, the head of the LDPR party and the Chairman of the Committee on International Affairs in the State Duma, paraphrased an infamous Nazi motto in his address:
“Regardless of our affiliations with political parties, there can be only one approach. One nation. One president. One victory.” “Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer!” [One People, One Realm, One Leader!] was the motto used on posters with a portrait of Hitler designed to consolidate the German nation. The motto was also used in Austria during the Anschluss referendum.
In conversation with the press, Slutsky subsequently tried to justify his statement: “We must be united like never before. One nation and its future. One president. And one victory, following which, Daria, our fair, beautiful, incredibly intelligent Daria will be commemorated by a street or square name... In a denazified Kyiv.”
Despite Slutsky’s explanations, the fragment with this phrase was later removed from the recording of his address on LDPR’s official Telegram channel. The party claims it was taken down “for purely technical reasons”.
What a coincidence, eh?
Slutsky tried explaining what he meant later. Recalling “For Faith, for the Tsar, and the Homeland!” a popular motto in Imperial Russia. No one seemed to buy his explanation, however.
And while one Russian bozo was citing Hitler to praise a fanatic's assassinated daughter, another was comparing her to Joan of Arc.
And if that doesn't make sense, try figuring this one out.
