No use you machine gunning the whole site and then pleading for sympathy. We know your Stalinesque ways Comrade.

Their regime looks to being headed by a tiny psychotic crackpot who's lost the plot.
As for the Russan people - humans just like the rest of us .... therefore dislikeable.

Meant to absolutely amazing and full of warm generous people. Mate did a year there as part of their degree 20yrs or so ago. Just crazy to think how impossible it would be now. Politics and power for you. Most average folk rub along alright.

Just like most countries in the world, i have no doubt that most of the Russian people are great but just like most countries in the world, they are tainted by their absolutely awful governments and illusionary systems of governance selection.

Would swerve it at the moment or just get a one-way ticket. You will come back at no charge via a prisoner exchange....if you get up the list.
