    I just wanted to say that, Russia didn't faught with Germany to save the world or the Europeans but for her ass, And the worst thing is when Russians try to present their country as a hero of the world.

    Imagine for a moment that Germany and the USSR were not at war. I think that in this case, Europe would be called Greater Germany.

    There is no need to "present" Russia as a hero of the world. Russia is a hero of the world :)

    West cannot live without enemy. Soviet Union was gone long ago so Russia is the only substitute to justify enormous spending in military. Those money could be spent on welfare or as a bust to the declining economy by creating new jobs like new roads or upgrading the obsolete power gird.

    Old Cold War stereotypes do not really prevail any more in today's better UK media .
    Providing you read the Times , Telegraph and Guardian there is a fairly good news flow concerning the new Federation -- good and bad .
    If there is a new stereotype here , it is either of the outright Oligarch thug and criminal like Abramovich and Deripaska , or the new emigre bloated with stolen wealth who just wants top education for their kids and a few breaths of fresh air .
    To the extent that this image masks the underlying poverty of most Russians and the failing nature of the nation's infrastructure , this is a disservice to the greater truth .But that is the nature of stereotypes -- unrepresentative snap shots
    Frankly , outside of natural resources strength , and that principally means Oil and Gas , the Federation is pretty much a failed state .
    If we were not still wedded to gas supply and to a lesser extent oil , there is no need to be greatly involved with Putin Land until business opportunities and conduct are more in line with the Rule of Law , Freedom of Speech and a real regard for Human Rights .
    Which is a great shame because , unsurprisingly , ordinary Russians are as nice as their counterparts all over the free world . Unfortunately they have their hands and legs tied for most of the time .

    For whatever reason, a lot of Russian posters on PForum.com is that we get to see anti-Russian propaganda 24/7 -- which isn't true at all.
