ok, your right-wing fascist trolling is leading me to compromise language. How about "Trump to meet with alleged corrupt authoritarian kleptocrat and war criminal Vladimir Putin for peace talks"? Will this satisfy you? [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|I don’t really care, Margaret]]</sup> 17:13, February 19, 2025 (EST)

"The Russian diaspora is estimated to be between 20 and 30 million people".[https://www.google.com/search?q=how+big+is+the+russian+diaspora&oq=how+big+is+the+russian+dia&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIICAIQABgWGB4yDQgDEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgEEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgFEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgGEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgHEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyBwgIEAAY7wUyBggJEC4YQNIBCDY2MDdqMGo0qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8]
"Negative ratings for Russian President Vladimir Putin remain very high: 67% of Americans have no confidence at all in the Russian leader to do the right thing in world affairs. 8% of Americans have a lot/some confidence in Putin." - Pew Research, May 2024.[https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2024/05/08/views-of-russia-and-putin/]
By the way, about a year ago, Tucker Carlson went into a Russian supermarket and said how great it was and how economical it was.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7atS2QVCJ2M] Now Russians are stealing butter and the prices of potatoes has soared.[https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-economy-inflation-potatoes-butter-central-bank-interest-rates-putin-2024-11] I am glad I wasn't one of the very few gullible conservatives who moved to Russia. On the other hand, tons of Russians - including millionaires and tech/educated people - have fled Russia.[https://decline-of-russia.blogspot.com/2024/11/russias-economy-is-that-of-shrinking.html] And MANY people - including millionaires move to America or want to.

P.S. I know you want me to endlessly talk about Russia, but the reality is that the amount of people in the Russian diaspora is HIGH.[https://www.google.com/search?q=how+big+is+the+russian+diaspora&oq=how+big+is+the+russian+dia&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIICAIQABgWGB4yDQgDEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgEEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgFEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgGEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgHEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyBwgIEAAY7wUyBggJEC4YQNIBCDY2MDdqMGo0qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8]
::And why should I endlessly focus on Russia which may break up in my lifetime or descend into a revolution? In the last 100 years, [https://www.historynewsnetwork.org/article/are-russians-really-long-suffering Russia has seen 3 revolutions]. And the fact is, [https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2023/05/03/russia-has-failed-as-a-state/ Russia is already a failed state].
