While I don't want to learn Russian (at least, for the moment) I am fascinated by Russian culture. As someone from the UK I see our culture being eroded away by things that come from America. I have absolutely nothing against American people but I certainly don't like the idea of every street in every town and city in the world having exactly the same shops and exactly the same things on sale. One great thing, for me, about travelling is to be able to notice the differences and find the things that make another country or city unique. The way things are going it will soon be impossible to tell where you are in the world because everywhere will look like everywhere else

What can Russia offer for other world

I'm sorry it was such a difficult question, and I'm so pleased that you answered it very well. :))

I think you are right. People become stronger and more complete when they have to fight for the kind of freedoms that a lot of other people in the world take for granted. I really take your point about there being no competition (and all your other reasons) for these huge multi-national companies in countries like Russia, and that's why they are there.

I just feel that Russian people are great and that Russia should be taking a lead in the culture of Europe as a whole, rather than that lead coming from somewhere that is derived from Europe but which is not Europe.

Thanks so much for answering my question. I feel very proud that I have friends in Russia, and indeed all over the world, together we will work towards making the world a better place! :)))
