@AK-cr5pe are these serious questions and statements? Okay.
1) would Russia survive without land lease - maybe, maybe not. No question it played an important role.
2) in Russia, the curriculum is federally mandated, but there might - might - be schools that do not talk about land lease. I haven't come across one.
I have worked with secondary schools both here and in the US and I'd venture a guess that, on average, more Russian high school students will know about land lease than, say, American high schoolers would know about the battle of Kursk or Stalingrad or the fact that Auschwitz was liberated by Soviet troops.
3) Frankly, I don't really care much for Youtube. The videos have slowed down significantly (so huge kudos to all those creators providing transcripts to their vids), but it's still pretty watchable via mobile connection. All things considered, it's a logical step - at war, one should limit the opposing side's propaganda. YT threw the gauntlet, pretty heavy-handedly, Roskomnadzor was happy to pick it up. Lose-lose kind of deal, but, like I said, doesn't affect me much personally.

No, not really - the US embargo on Cuba, for instance, has been around for some 6 decades now, no sign of it lifting or easing up. Magnitsky is long dead and the refuseniks have grown old and peacefully died out in Israel, Canada, and the US - but the spirit of Jackson-Vanick is still very much alive.
It would be nice to have SWIFT back and have aircraft parts to maintain Russian Airbus and Boeing fleet - after all, it's a question of safety and ultimately human lives, but then again, Iran has been in this situation for awhile now and seems to be coping okay. So yeah, generally the expectation of sanctions lifting is fairly low.
