You don't have to have Italians or Indians to be a melting pot. Russia's melting pot isn't as international as America's but their is a huge diversity of cultures in the former USSR/Russian Empire and that is the cultural melting pot that Russia has.
That being said Russia as of 2010 has 1,370 Italians and 4,058 Indians, which isn't a lot, but Russia has many other much larger minorities such as;
And then if you were to add all the ethnic group of the post soviet countries you would get an even more astounding diversity.

THIS doesn't count as diversity, when half of them look like kind of "Asians mixed with Russians" ( that's how Americans often describe the Central Asians I've noticed. )
There is no diversity without Africans and Middle Easterners in your mix, when people living side by side are incompatible and tend to get on each other's throat. Now that's DIVERSITY with a capital "D", the REAL diversity.
The diversity of Russian kind is fake I'd say)))
They have good relations with 7 of them. But its clearly past time to sever these ties. Not that big a deal of course...
Well, they choose their master...the net result is still being a slave......personally I would have preferred to stay with Russia (at least you have cultural affinity) and participate in the economic integration with Asia than being free to cleaning toilets in Germany...to each his own I guess.....

LOL. That's just a bunch of Russian propaganda. I can't tell you how many times I've heard that same sentence being used. No, educated Ukranians will not be cleaning toilets. That's just what Russia tells them to scare them.

No, is not Russian propaganda...educated people are free to go where they want....I saw simply pointing to the fact that I suspect Ukraine hopes and expectations for joining the EU may be different from what will happen in reality......EU is not very popular in a lot of EU countries right now....
At best Ukraine will be considered a third tier country in the club, a low cost manufacturing country probably (my native country of Italy and a member founder of the EU is second tier at best behind the real center pf power, the German-French duo).

I consider Italy to be one of the big five (well technically 4, now that the UK is leaving).

In reality we do not count for much in the union and anti EU sentiment is very strong (the coalition that wont he election in March is anti Euro).
We are one of the founding member but we are stills second class citizens in Europe.

Do you believe that Germany and France rain supreme in the EU then, since Spain is still obviously behind Italy?
