is russia supposed to allow western corporate oligarchy to colonize it and turn it into some finland/poland tier state with zero big universities, zero aerospace industry, zero military, zero economic self sufficiency, zero heavy industry, destroy its world leading status in arms exports and food exports, butcher its worlds biggest resource reserves, etc?
russia is still world leader in engineering phds per capita, european countries still need russian soyuz to launch satellites into space, italy might have bigger gdp but 90% of euro country gdp is just gucci dildo and they cant use gucci dildo to launch satellites into space, they need russia to do it
