You probably do not know about mining resources in Russia and rural households sector which includes agriculture and fishing. Economy, in fact, depends on many factors, not only on the money invested. But the biggest impact of the economy is at the means of financing. The more money in the country, the stronger the economy, and it entails constant trading, and incredible competition among domestic and foreign manufacturer. If you understand the economy, we realized that Europe is heavily dependent on Russia, as well as a lot of business in the United States.If you want I can give lessons economics and accounting?
You probably didn't see long ago how many makes an external debt of Russia.
I will tell you. These are 732 billion dollars. And it a little bit is more than gold reserves of Russia: )
To explain you communication and consequences, or you will understand?
But there is also a good news to you: now probably you will save 12 billions which wanted to give to Ukraine before revolution: )
so some pro-Russian zombies tried to stir things up at the Ukrainian rally in Toronto today, 1 woman came out of the Russian consulate calling everyone fascists, another guy attacked an elderly (Russian, anti-Putin) man, punched him in the eye. Police had to be called, now patrolling all future protests...
Looks the RT propaganda works well in Canada as well...
@ Ariete : and I just bought a Russian flag and planted it in my garden in solidarity with Russia.
Now I'm waiting to see what's going to happen with neighbours or the police in my so "democratic" Western country...
I didn't read the thread because I had no time... I hate the fact that my country is a puppet of the US like rest countries in the EU, I think that the EU must have its own foreign policy, and not to be a dog of uncle sam. The soviet leader who gifted Crimea to Ukraine was Ukrainian, there is no questions, Crimea is Russian.
I think Greece and Italy should stand first in the line of the "rightful owners" of Crimea. After Greeks and Italians, Crimea should be owned by Mongols, then it's Crimean Tartars turn, then it's Turkey's turn, only after all those honorable countries patiently standing in line it would be a Russian turn.
BTW, around 1789, 1856 the numbers of Ukrainians and Russians were about the same. Now it's 1 Ukrainian to 3 Russians, Ukraine has paid heavy price for the "fraternal" union with Russians. Massive casualties, wars, famine, and simple Russification decimated ethnic Ukrainians.
Russian Army conquering and defending Crimea was roughly 50/50 Ukrainian-Russian in 1789, 1856 and to lesser extent in 1941-1945, ethnically speaking. Thus, if we are talking the right of conquest as a primary right in this world, Russians are not quite honest, ethnic Ukrainians shed as much blood for that Peninsula as Russians did, if not more (considering perpetual war of Ukrainians cossacks with Crimean Khans).

North Korean dictator joined Syrian dictator in expressing his support for Mother Russia fighting evil forces of the West (including France, btw). You'll fit right in.
For those who don't know Russian language. The old woman addressing men in green uniforms said: "Fear is (an element) of the psychology of a slave. Please, don't defend me, I need no protection." As a result she was called a provocateur and pushed to the ground by the Russian "anti-fascists" who yelled that video recording is a provocation too. Russian internet is full of the calls for the blood of the "fifth column" that betrays mother Russia by holding hostile opinions. Those of you knowing Russian language (and having a grain of critical thinking not drowned in chauvinism) could see the extent of Russian nazi-like depravity for yourself by looking over this Sevastopol (Crimea) forum. http://forum.sevastopol.info/viewfor...1ad46793dc9fec
Anybody who's not a rabid Russian nazi was banned long time ago, so you'll have a good grasp of typical "anti-fascist" opinions in Crimea. Personally, I have nothing but disgust after reading that nazi-empire-chauvinistic garbage drowned in lies and hatred, but I know that a Russian comrade from Kamchatka would be right in his shoes there.
One could ask, "Why would anyone want to share a country with nasty people like that?". Unfortunately, it's plainly obvious that "anti-fascists" will not be satisfied with Crimea, simple existence of Ukraine and Ukrainian language (outside of tourist reservations) is fascism in the eyes of the "patriotic" Russians. It will not stop there.
