Well Lithuania was probably worse than others:

IMO it's clear:
Russian propaganda is shouting out about russophobia and naz is, while there are more neo-naz is in Russia than anywhere else. (Something pretty insane, considering what naz
is thought about Russians..)
Whatever. The reasons for Neonaz ism in eastern europe, and in the world, are the same as any subculture of the violent sort: From bikers in america to polish or british hooligans to norwegian black metal to romanian and italian goths to radical punks, to young islamists, or even many people in many armies all over.
It's a culture with simple, clear answers, with a bad boy image, being feared/respected, brotherhood. This is especially powerful for people who don't have a future, or no means to develop, get rich, or display their manliness otherwise. In Ukraine they happened to find a scene where they could fight for an actual cause. They fought and won, and made sure they could not be ignored by the new government.
That's all. No one is out to GET or Take russia. No neonaz is have real political power in europe. Most europeans simply want to live in peace, and have moderate capitalism, they want to get rid of corruption, and they don't like it when old superpowers invades Ukraine, who seems to want the same as them. Russohpobia, Naz is: Just BS packaged and sold to the Russian people so they will support the meaningless war.
