I wouldn’t be surprised if Putin or his cronies intentionally allowed the assassination plot against Dugin to go ahead. a rabid ultra- nationalist further to the right of Putin constricts Putin‘s own maneuverability in Russian politics. so Putin really has no use for Dugin alive.
Dugin’s assassination by Ukraine both give the nationalist cause a martyr and provides putin with talking points to justify continued war against ukraine. So Dugin is useful to Putin dead.
