Far-right parties are declining and have a single seat in the parliament. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-right_politics_in_Ukraine?wprov=sfti1#Far-right_political_parties On the contrary, neo-nazism is an endemic problem in russia https://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2022/opinion/russias-long-history-of-neo-nazis https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/if-russia-serious-about-de-nazification-it-should-start-home https://www.internationalaffairs.org.au/australianoutlook/putin-doesnt-combat-nazism-he-cultivates-it/
