well Syria’s government is killing innocent people and Russia and china opposed their veto to a UN resolution that candamns the aothorities of Syria.all this because of politician considerations. they didn’t think about the people who are suffering.


but once again I have nothing against Russians. I dont have a good image of politicians anyway.

Not once I notice in this website talkings about Syria and Russia. Dear arab friends! All that you hear from your Mass media, we hear absolutely other things about it from our mass media. Actually we, simple Russians, even can not imagine what’s going on there in Syria. Policy is a dirty game.

As for gay marriages, they are forbidden not only in Russia, but in many other countries.

In Romania the gays were beaten several years ago because they organised an authorized parade. The main reason: they give bad example to kids. But this is else topic.


I thought it would be unfair to not say what I appreciate @ Russia most in nowadays. Is their space program.

Yulia, frankly speaking, I am much more fascinated by Dutch tulips than by Pieter Bruehgel the Elder and Van Gogh. That has been my vision of Holland for many years. Alas, there’s always somebody who takes me back from heaven to earth. ;-)


Sobrah, so far the UN hasn’t proposed anything better than the Libyan scenario and the Egyptian football with which Russia cannot agree. On the other hand, it objected to all Russia’s peaceful initiatives. It was logical of our politicians to veto the UN resolution.

And communist theory is supported only by old people in general here. Personally I don’t know any person (sorry for tautology) around me who supports communists.

The next words are written from my experince, I am not judging anyone. So I will  choose words with concrete point of view. What I like in russian people is they are very talkative, honest, cheerful. Everything is ok in my country, if you know a lot of russians live in Kazakhstan.  We have never had a problem in nationality cause. We live friendly, though  its a fact that russians are not so friendly. They dont want to learn our language thinking its not as popular or useful as russian. My english tutor was in Russia 5 years ago, she told me how was a trip to there, wwhen she forgot the way to some place people ignored her words, she was asking them to show it in the map, but none replies. She now speaks “they were looking at me thinking like oh shes an asian”. 


I was not rude to them I think, I am just speaking my opinion
