Friends!!!

Russia. What do you think about Russia? Have you been in Russia, what your impressions? Would you like to visit Russia, why?

First, i havent visited Russia..and i think i don't want to visit it.. i dont like it.. i heard lots of about russia..they've got terrible goverment! they're poor…in small city and villagelive poor ppl..i tihnk..ofc not at all..

but on tv i saw lots of chioldren who smelt glue ;/ u know..like drugs :// umm and they r slept on the railway station or in cannal.. unfortunately its sad.. but its terrbile that they are steal ! :/

hm…

91patii: If your letter is truth (about our "terrible" government, "poor" citizens, who sleeping on the railway station or in channel, our children-addicts), your TV – concourse of liars and provokers! Very ridiculously to read it! :) The part of all of it is, but it is no more than in other countries (especially in Poland).

I haven't visit to Russia,, but I like russian and wanna visit there,, ^{^ and I can see many russian in my city.. and the ppl seems really tall .. and the baby so lovey ,, like doll}^ but I cann't speak the language =S so I cann't communicate with them=,="

I don't know much about Russia , all the impression are from Red Alert and the movies of world war 2 ,but I think Russia is great country….by the way , Putin is cool guy ,he can even fly fighter :D

Russians are awful people.  The cold war never ended here in the US.  Russians=Memphis mafia=elvis presley.  Elvis made the mistake of joining them and they killed him. A slow death.  The drugs were for them to use for payment to people to do nasty dirty work here for them. They blew him up like a balloon and made him perform on stage.  They distroyed him.   I'll write more later.  I wrote a bunch of stuff to support this and then lost it.   

RUSSIANS ARE SPINELESS COWARDLY EVIL NASTY SOULS, THEY USE MIND CONTROL .  AWFUL PEOPLE.  THE COLD WAR NEVER ENDED THEY ARE A BIG OPERATION OVER HERE IN THE US.  THEY WANT OUR MONEY, OUR COUNTRY THE WORLD.  THEY HATE U.S.  DON'T LET THEM FOOL YOU. DON'T VISIT THEIR COUNTRY. THEY TRIED TO HIDE BEHIND THE RUSSIAN MAFIA, IT'S RUSSIANS, NO MAFIA.  MEMPHIS TENNESSEE IS RUSSIAN RED, MEMPHIS MAFIA IS RUSSIAN RED.  JOE ESPOSITO HIGH IN THE RANKS.  ELVIS MADE A HORRIBLE MISTAKE.  WHY COULDN'T HE HAVE BEEN MORE LIKE FRANK SINATRA AND STOOD HIS GROUND??? 

JUST DON'T TURN YOUR BACK THEY'LL STAB YOU.  THEY HATE AMERICANS AND OUR GOV'T.  THEY WANT TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD.  COLD WAR NEVER ENDED.

That is just ridiculous. purple1, you watch too much TV. We're very friendly people and don't want to conquer the world, we have a lot of another problems inside our country to handle with. How old are you? Ten years old?:)

 I HAVE BEEN KAZAKHISTAN FOR 4 YEARS..IT GIVEN ENOUGHT TIME TO SEE AND UNDERSTAND TO THEM.. DO NOT AFRAID ME BUT I GUESS THEY ARE A BIT COLD ,I THINK IT IS ABOUT  COLD AİR CONDITIONAL

usually the western movıes show the russian persons as colD (WHY??)

AND I HAVE SOME RUSSIAN FRIENDS AND OTHER PERSON FROM OTHER COUNTRIES…SOMETIMES WE TALK US ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE SIDES OF OUR COUNTRIES AND THEY AGREE WITH ME WHAT I WROTE ,TOO

Russians are different, as any people in the world. One of them is rough, other is nice. Opinion like “All Russian are spineless and angry” – foolish and is not have some base. I so say, many of the Russians are conservative and closed. They are boring inhabitant. They lives on formula “home-family-job”. They do not interest events, policy, international development… They lives in them little world, in shell. ... As many of peaple in the world.
In USSR russian were frendly, international, purposeful (like construction of the international socialism)...
But presently they are different… One of them have an no ideologies, they concentrated on the personal well-being, career and earnings. Other are a nationalist, religious fanatic and other mad… This all not uniform.
But not all such… Some russians are interesting, progressive, active, creative.
Russian youth are like any another. There are subculture, groups, crews (misceleanous… from creative and to asocial). Absolutely like anywere.
So, russian such either as other people. I think.
But if speak about Russia, you do not know subject. Because Russia is not only Moscow (St.-Peter., Vladimir, Suzdali, etc.). However and these city differ from rest only presence old-time building. It must intrestung for turists and only… Rest in Russia either as everywhere… usual, casual, ordinary.
I am Siberian. I live in Siberia. There is -40’C in winter and +40’C summer. It’s cool. There are modern towns, ordinary people (stupid, clever, repugnant, decent, impudent, cruel, good…). There is worse, than in some country of the Europe, but not worse than in America, or, on example, China.
If for you interesting truth, ask some russian about it.
