So how do you view Russia?

So Litvinenko WAS poisoned by russian agents under Putins orders afterall. Does this change the way you percieve Russia at all? IMO They have violated our national sovereignty.

This is a country thaty sits on the biggest stockpile of nuclear warheads anywhere on earth and is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, yet gets away with **** like this on a regular basis. It's unnacceptable but I don't think there's much we can do about it tbh.

What do you think?

I think the Russian leadership is horrible, the country not so much. The language, for example, is beautiful.

I don't think it's a particularly nice country and has pretty unsavoury leadership but heyho.

Average life expectancy for Russians - 64. 25% of all Russian men die before 55. Putin is 63. However, he'll have access to the best medical care he can afford due to his position.

Perhaps Tolstoy? One of the best authors of all time, and definitely the most famous Russian writer.
