Thanks for the link, Steve ..

The last paragraph read like some sort of govt advert ..and surely there was a mistake?

I could have acquired RU citizenship without giving up another nationality under the 'old' rules...

There's no benefit to acquiring perm residency if it means one has to have a RU driver's licence ...  :coffeeread:

I have never claimed to be a Blue Beret

Spurious claims about 'seeing action' with the Blue Berets are debunked >here<

Here is my Russophobia/Kremlinphobia topic

Real estate prices have already started to decline in Moscow according to my friend who is a real estate agent. Not much, but headed south for sure.

I suspect prices to continue to decline worldwide because of this over-exaggerated corona virus horses^&t. Nobody has any money or they're nervous to buy with all the uncertainty about the future.

Might want to wait until next year to buy.

As for me, better to marry a RW as it's cheaper, oh wait, nevermind. :laugh:
