  1. EU territory from the Atlantic to the Pacific ?

    Why ? Just because Russians are Christian too ?

    Absurd idea...


  2. Last year, President Putin was reported in the Pravda newspaper as saying Russia had no intention of joining the EU.  This article explains why: http://english.pravda.ru/russia/politics...

  3. Scott, why don't Russia join with Turkey into the Euroasian Union , a union for countries those are both in Europe and in Asia. Why not? Russians like to take a rest in Turkey. Turks like to work in Russia  

  4. oh come on, Russia isnt ever ready to be a part of europe

    the talk is not only about the georgraphical irrevelande but others too, just see how russia deals with problems, diplomacy, democracy is a new terms for Russia or they have different meanings,

    their lnguage is the language of force and war,, europian values are so much different from russians that it seems impossible for me  

  5. Joining the EU would hinder Russia's ability to make independent decisions. Also, many in the EU hold the opinion that Russia is too big to integrate .

  6. Most of it is not in Europe.  Historically, there has always been a distance between Europe and Russia, despite the efforts of Peter the Great and Gorbachev.

  7. EU external borders would be increased with three or four times. EU not ready to do so.

    Although the idea of EU "from ocean to ocean" I was very attracted.

    Russia's entry into the EU will make twice as powerful EU.

    And it does not need the United States.

    In my opinion, the EU now resemble the USSR. All decisions, even before anyone how much to produce sugar carried out in the center.


  8. 1. They don't want to be. The russians do not want their affairs managed my european nations, and they do not want to give up any of their power, real or perceived.

    2. Only a part of Russia is actually in Europe. Most of it is in Asia. This is the same reason why Turkey is not a member.
