The point isn't that they exist, but that they are an extreme minority. Pretending that the left wing parties are somehow tricked because of this is propaganda.

Well, Germany has one left wing party (most others self-identify as center) and it is not long untill it seperates into two about this and other questions. Sure, it's not "The Left" as a whole, but at the end of the video, he says that not everybody on the left supports Putin. It still is a seizable group within the (radical) left.
