Cults: The CIA's Secret Weapon

In January 2023, a symbol of the Ukrainian nationalist cult 'RUNVira' appeared near a major Orthodox shrine in Kiev, the Pechersk Lavra.

Today, 'RUNVira' still promotes the ideas of Ukrainian exceptionalism and harbors hatred towards Russians and Jews. How did Ukraine become a center for neo-Nazi cults, and who is responsible for this?
