the daughter of a nationalist close to Putin killed in a car bomb attack

A car has just exploded in the suburbs of Moscow (Russia), Saturday August 20. In front of the burning carcass, a man clutches his head with both hands: Alexandre Douguine. He has just lost his daughter, killed in the explosion, and understands that he was undoubtedly the real target of this attack. Alexander Dougin is a 60-year-old ultranationalist Russian ideologue, who boasts of being close to Vladimir Putin. He participated Saturday August 20 in a conference of the Russian far right with his daughter, to whom he had left his car at the end of the evening.

The young woman began her journey, before the vehicle that was trapped exploded, 40 kilometers from Moscow. For investigators, the criminal trail is beyond doubt. The ideologue had been publicly campaigning for the war in Ukraine for several years. According to several specialists, he is a Kremlin influencer whom certain political adversaries wanted to eliminate. Ukraine denies any involvement, Sunday August 21. The Kremlin has not yet reacted.
