Ok Chxta, read below on the evils of Russian capitalism:


But even the most die-hard Blues fan must have spared a moment to contemplate how the league has been won: it has been bought. The transformation has been wrought by Roman Abramovich, the billionaire Russian oligarch who reaped the rewards of the mass fire sale of national assets after the end of communism. Industries that had been bequeathed to Russia's workers were privatised at a fraction of their real value. Abramovich and Boris Berezovksy bought the oil company Sibneft for £67m. Abramovich is today worth in the region of £3.5bn. The average Russian oil worker earns less than £2 an hour.

Occasional investigations into the Abramovich empire have failed to unearth that he has committed any illegalities. However, can it be right that in post-communist Russia some young men have emerged with more money than they know what to do with, while millions are on the breadline?

As the song goes:

"When the KGB comes knocking at his door,
cause he stole all his money from the poor.
When the Kremlin gets his number,
Chelsea's going under,
cause he stole all his money from the poor."

And his view is any different from the medias?

I was merely explaining Zlatan coz Zlatan was saying how chxta thinks media is biased yet he tells us that the media was right about russia.

Im not agreeing with chxta, coz I havent been to russia, and yes it is one person's point of view, it doesn't neccessarily make the truth.

His view that the russian public didnt care is something that i ,in my 7 trips to russia never encountered once... We all see different things in our time in these places.

We all know about the goverment but to say that about the people is unbeleivable.

Interesting how you also jump to your friends aid... with he saw it with his own eyes... Yet only the other day you were saying my personal view of lybia was incorrect as i probably stayed in a hotel... Please get some consistency
??

What r u talkin about? you must be mistaken coz I didn't write what u are saying I did. It was sum1 else. I don't blindly defend people regardless if they are my friend or not.
In regards to the Ghaddafi discussion I was saying that things/life, aren't always what u think of it, especially in other parts of the countries. Even though u have visited, u will never fully understand until u live amongst them for quite a long time. But I never said he wasn't a Terrorist.

If you have been in these countries you have been in 5star hotel like u r on vacation and can't make objective statement. My country is full of ****in strangers who are "trying" to help. They and their decisions have ruined this country. When they are asked how is situation in this country they say it is fine. Well for me would be fine also if I have montly payment about 5 or 10k € or much more.
