    It's poor to western standards, and let's see pics of rural areas and farms? Cities always look good!

    Litwin, you are apparently joking about millions of tourisnts from Ukraine. They do not have money to buy pants, and you talk about trips to Europe. You remind me Ostap Bender, who was talking the people in the village of Vasyuki, that there village woul be the centre of the Universe :mrgreen:

    Litwin, are you a nationalist? What has to do a nationality with the discussion?

    You are wrong, Germans are quite welcomed in Russia. And of course, there are many nice places to visit. Baikal, Siberia, Caucases.

    Well, I assumed he talked about RF. Russians in general are very hospitable, so I was surprised that Germans are not welcomed.

    I can assume a german may get a couple of odd looks from the elderly... The really old elderly, people who grew up after the WWII...

    But generally - majority of people will be pretty open.

    I have no doubt that there are also nice areas in russia. But it has a more negative image over here. Its not a place people here consider a holiday place.

    Well, we have a continental climate, with mountines on the west, south, (and east, if you speak only of western part of RF), while completely exposed on the north to arctic air currents. I guess with that we kinda get less warm weather than in New Caledonia... ...but as for places - it depends on what you seek. We got plenty of historical landmarks, enormous amounts of untamed, literally untouched by a human land, some mountain resorts for skiing and snowboarding, got beaches in Azov and Black Sea, part of Caucasus, the lake Baikal... It can go on. Plenty of museums of all kinds, obviously a standart pack of pleasantries each city got, and... I still pretty much understand, why we are not very much a 'tourism' country.

    Still, there's not many places in the world, where you can see endless miles, and miles of untamed land, of forests and fields, hills and wetlands, where not even cromagnion people lived, where human didn't stepped in since the dawn of time..! The land, the way it was in antient times, when our ancestors yet only been on the doorstep of civilization~

    doesn't matter what you are other far-rightists want , think. Germany export 25 % of it GDP , without it Germany is Spain or south of France. that's why German elites are power house of EU integration. with other words Germany will always stand for free moment in europe/ free- market . if far- rightists start do something against it (German economy) actively ´ll end up like the red brigades ...

    I´m an police officer. I assure you our "elites" have lost control since a long time. Merkel cant even step a foot into certain german cities anymore. Her ministers got attacked and had to escape with smoking wheels.

    Their "refugee project" failed as well, since their guests got hunted out of east german towns.

    Keep in mind, we dont want you here. Nor do we like Ukrainians or your cause. You are potential criminals for us. This and nothing more. A security threat.

    I'm not Turkey? Or I'm not a Turk? :)

    Whether you believe in the computer you're using is real or not, that computer exists, right? Same goes for "geopolitics". It's the reality that governs the entire global order. That's what drive the force behind the recent "shift" ! And that's exactly why AKP is so far away from living in the "real world". That's also why no matter what AKP and the US did, we first got rid of their lousy FETO agents and then buried PKK in the trenches they dug in the south eastern cities, then our Armed Forces "managed" to intervene to Syria and successfully finished the "FIRST PHASE" of its well planned strategy...! Without geopolitics, you can never make it against the US, let alone whilst a pro-US government "seem to be" in charge of things. Your days are over litwo :)

    i lost you after "refugee project", what it has to do with "visa-free travel for Ukraine" ? Ukrainians are hardworking people, and any statistic proves it , you can start with Canada. again, Germany exports 25 % of its GDP your case has 0 chance.
