Zuerst! reported its political leaning and policy as follows: "The German news magazine ZUERST! will serve German - not foreign - interests." Immediately after its first issue the Office for the Protection of the Constitution announced that the content of the magazine was against the "unending de-nazification efforts", advocating revisionist theories on national boundaries, and the terrorist activities of the "South Tirolean Freedom Fighters" in the 1960s. According to OCCRP investigation, Ochsenreiter received thousands of euros from Russia's International Agency for Current Policy for publishing pro-Russian articles. In 2019, when investigation into the false flag attack in Ukraine was initiated, Ochsenreiter fled to Moscow and lived there until he died in suspicious circumstances in August 2021. ==See also==
