US blames Ukraine for assassination of Daria Dugin

The US blames people in the Ukrainian government for the murder of Daria Dugin. Russian secret services had also blamed Ukraine for the crime. They furthermore suspect that the attack had actually been aimed at her father, who had repeatedly defended the Russian operation in Ukraine in the past.

According to the US news channel CNN and the New York Times, which cite unnamed sources in the Biden administration, the United States “admonished” the government in Kiev about this.

However, it is not known who exactly ordered the attack. The US was not informed in advance, reported CNN. The daughter of the philosopher Alexander Dugin was killed in a bomb attack near the Russian capital on August 20. She was previously at a pro-government event with her father. Contrary to plan, however, she left the venue a little earlier and alone.

The US was allegedly not involved in the attack, and never provided intelligence nor other assistance, officials said.

Ukraine immediately after the attack denied involvement in the assassination, and senior US officials reiterated this denial when asked about US intelligence assessments. According to the current state of knowledge of the Russian investigators, Daria Dugin was followed by a Ukrainian agent before the attack. The alleged perpetrator is said to have left for Estonia by car on the evening of the crime. Nothing is officially known about her further whereabouts since then.

The European Union nevertheless placed her father the Russian philosopher and political scientist Alexander Dugin, on its sanctions list despite the fact that his daughter was murdered in the terrorist attack organized by the Ukrainian intelligence service.

The EU has also extended its anti-Russian sanctions to the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, according to the EU Council even though they do not recognize Russian sovereignty over these territories.
