When I watch TV or read newspapers, it seems to me that many people are afraid of us (God knows why) or they simply don't understand us.
So what is your personal opinion about our nation?

I think  many people have stereotype  about Russia that have created by mass media (film, TV ,etc ) during coldwar  like a bad man that why  some people afraid russia .

For me , I know a little thing about russia , for instance , largest nation of the world , have beautiful tourist traps like kremlin , and have interesting history .

But I have no idea about government and about people

Our government... You know, about 1/2 of us do not approve its actions, laws, etc.
People... People are different. i think the situation is the same everywhere, all around the world.

Hi!
Be sure, it is not so cold in our country! Now the temperature is about 28-30 degrees above zero! It is in the central region, near Moscow.
Jails... Of course, there are jails and not only in Siberia. Criminals are born in every society, so special places to keep them away from others are needed. However I can't but mention that there are no political prisoners in Russia!

I feel Russians are quite good as my cousin have studied from some Russian university ...and he depicts the good time stories He had enjoyed there ...

but after looking at Russians Players I can for sure say that they are tall, white and handsome/beautiful whatever the gender follows it. So don't loose heart obviously people have different opinion to carry with.

Russia had wanted to reach warm seas and incited the people who were other nations in the Ottoman Empire..So, they rebelled the Ottoman Empire and the Ottoman Empire was dispursed as it consisted of lots of nations.Although Russia caused the destruction of the Ottoman Empire, I dont hate Russian people and I try to forget all of the events. We, Turks like the people who like us, and hate the people who hate us..If Russian people like us, we like us and have good relationship with them.But now, in the world, so many country behave badly to Turks as they suppose Turks are terrorist. On the contrary, Turks want peace as the man who said "peace in the land, peace in the world" was a Turk.(Mustafa Kemal Atatürk)

Meral, maybe it is better you to only speak for yourself.. Personally, I don't hate anyone no matter what Smile [:)] (Especially, because of historical/political reasons Tongue Tied [:S])

About the Russians, I met some of them and thought "they are so cold" Stick out tongue [:P], but after getting knowing them better, I understood that they aren't that bad! Wink [;)]
