Comments by "" (@TheDavidlloydjones) on "The Hidden Crisis Destroying Russia From the Inside" video.
Russia is what Canada was called a hundred years ago: a raiload in search of a country. The difference is, Canada had and has a loyal and productive population all across the middle. Russia has a Moslem Middle and a Mongol Tip, with the occasional little village of Muscovy bureaucrats here and there along the rails. Putin's stupid war against Ukraine, which he is very surprised to see himself losing, in just a personal, one-man effort to distract himself from the rality: Russia's prolem isn't just in all the old European "republics" the Soviets lost: it's everything east of the urals -- what the Tsars were able to amass only because the easterners couldn't take a cheap plane ride to civilization in the 1870s.
