Well, I was born in the US, but my grandparents are from Russia. I have studied this at length and it is true that most are in New York, and other NE locations, but surprisingly, Washington State also has a strong Russian population. There used to be a few good Russian restaurants in the Seattle area, but that was years ago. Someone can update.

I appreciate your reply, but at the same time you didn't answer any of my questions on this thread, let alone the question that is the title of the thread itself.

I still appreciate your reply to this thread none of the less and hopefully there will be more replies to this thread from other Russian Americans soon.

Sorry, I lost track of your original questions.

I am not an expert, but I think the advancements into the Ukraine are misguided, as these countries, IMO, can exist on their own. I believe it is Russia trying to make up for its loss of power over the past 27 years. But re-reading your original question, you probably don't care about my opinion. I hope you get more native Russians to respond, but I wouldn't count on it. But thanks for an interesting thread.

It's alright. Your opinion counts as well. And yes, hopefully there will be more Russian Americans that will respond to this thread.
