National Socialist Movement "Slavic Union" (Russian: Национал-социалистическое движение «Славянский союз», romanized: Natsional-sotsialisticheskoye dvizheniye «Slavyanskiy soyuz») was a Russian neo-Nazi organization founded in 1999 by Dmitry Demushkin. In 2010, it was banned by the Moscow City Court. The group's website, in Russian, links to extensive material on Holocaust denial and to works by Adolf Hitler. Its organizational logo was a stylized swastika and the group's initials, "SS" in Russian, are the same as those used by the German Schutzstaffel during World War II. The party was also notorious for promoting a far-right, "Aryan" tradition of Slavic paganism. The organisation was described as ultranationalist and anti-Semitic.
