In RT’s recent feature on the security threat of Western neo-Nazis fighting in Ukraine and then returning to the home countries, various cases are described from France, Norway, and other countries. One of the cases cited from the US, is that of American mercenary and US Army veteran Craig Lang. Last summer, Lang was seen on social media “in a Ukrainian military uniform and brandishing an anti-tank weapon.”

Lang made headlines when he attempted to blow up his pregnant wife with anti-personnel landmines.

BuzzFeed reported that Craig succeeded in recruiting dozens of Western militants to various Ukrainian paramilitary units.
