Page "Aleksandr Dugin" Paragraph 6

Dugin was amongst the earliest members of the National Bolshevik Party ( NBP ) and convinced Eduard Limonov to enter the political arena in 1994.

A part of hard-line nationalist NBP members, supported by Dugin split off to form the more right-wing, anti-liberal, anti-left, anti-Kasparov aggressive nationalist organization, National Bolshevik Front.

After breaking with Limonov, he became close to Yevgeny Primakov and later to Vladimir Putin's circle.
