Russia has become a hot topic these days due to the events of Crimea. Although these are clearly sad events in our modern history as a continent, one has to account that Russia has played an important role in shaping Europe's history and it is considered a part of it, partially because of land, but also because of its civilization. Therefore I was wondering if Russia will ever become a member or EU in the (probably far) future.
What are your thoughts about that? Would you like Russia in or out?
I do not think European Union is actually good for all European people,is clearly good for Germany,Austria.
Is not good clearly for Spain,Greece,Romania.
Is true that is a lot of corruption in Greece and Romania,but in Spain is not and Spain have worst situation from European Union,as un-employment,while most poor from European Union are Romanians.
For Eastern and South European people European Union seems to not be good .
Take for example Montenegro who already got Euro as currency,European Union leaders are refusing to receive Montenegro in EU.
Greece was a very rich country,with a very high standard of living,before entering EU,now they got a lot more poor.
In Romania,we even got hospitals closing because lack of funds,railroads,no money to maintain them anymore,train got to run with average speed of 40 km/h or even worse in same parts were before was running with about 80km or more average speed...
Besides,I noticed that is a lot of racism against Asian people in European Union,against East and North and Central Asian people,more exactly,middle-eastern are well received into EU,same about Indians and Pakistanis.
And Russia got a lot of North Asian,Central Asian people,with slanted eyes,which are considered by most Europeans savages and so on.
So I think with how actual Europeans are thinking,it would not be good for Russia people to enter EU.
Is true,I do not like Putin too much either.
