RE: the secret to contentment in life..24 Jan 2022 17:10
My husband worked in Russia for more than 10 years and the things you are saying are actually not correct. Sorry. Russian people are the most friendly nation if to look closer please don’t mix Russia and ex USSR. And the main thing is that R. people and the government are two different things. Nobody likes R government, but sadly it is so corrupt and full of criminals, that R people just prefer to keep living their lives as they are, instead of going against the government and end up as Mr. Novalny.
Regarding “ been indoctrinated since birth to despise "the west"- sorry, this is ridiculous, a third of the country has international families spread over the world, with no such a thing you are posting here. No offence, but let’s just be honest.
