The are practically no sympathizers in the sense that they want to revive the Warsaw Pact. There are:

1) People who want to trade.

2) People who appreciate Russia's undeniable cultural achievements.

3) Organizations like the LaRouche Schiller institute that are most likely CIA fronts, double agents or both.

> Russia's undeniable cultural achievements.

You mean war, genocide, destruction and misery?

That is moving the goal posts quiet far. Being sympathetic to Russia does not require someone to want the Warsaw pact resurrected

Yes yes Vlad you are so right

There are just people who like Russian ballet and then the CIA. So long as you do not wish to recreate the Warsaw Pact, then you are not a sympathizer but just a Very Normal German

Thank you Vlad for your contribution

For the edification of the Ukrainian online hall monitor, here is the Washington Post on the value of the LaRouche network:

For the rest: Stop interfering with EU politics and free speech. I hope Ukraine never joins the EU, just as I hope Russia never does.

		Your provided evidence of LaRouche being a CIA front is an article in which the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency orders the DIA to stop interacting with them for fear of them being a Russian front? > Graham recalled that LaRouche associates came up with what he called good intelligence about the situation in Angola, Mozambique and elsewhere. Graham said that in the mid-1970s, he and DIA colleagues concluded that some of the information was so sensitive that they suspected the LaRouche group was getting some of it from the Soviets or another government. Graham added that he couldn't prove the contention Hmm... what's more likely: Russian sympathizing group with connections to Russia and advocating Russian positions and disseminating intelligence of likely-Russian origin is... Russia-aligned? No no, it must be CIA-aligned because umm... they gave info to the CIA. There are no conceivable reasons that a truly Russia-sympathizing group would want to give the CIA information, right? Lmfao
