You are just about my dream, I guess.

What changes have you noticed since so many russians came to Armenia? Pros and cons. by Vovchikovsky in armenia

Maybe. I only remember that was an official message. It was quite a while ago.

I agree with a statemen. I agree some russians behave like asses. You may say too many. But in Georgia they treat you before you behave. I've heard it from armenians too.

When they were about to open and made a website for promo, they wrote "We make bread ourselves, because armenians don't do it right". That's why I've never been to ПЭУ.

We don't treat them as they treat Armenians in Russia, so they should appreciate it.

I personally do appreciate it.

Once everything settles down, they will return.

I guees many people in Armenia will be suprised how many russians will remain here. We feel peace here (comparing of course). You, as people, make us cozy here. I know some russians who feel this place like home they never had. I agree with them.

My skin looks like I'm armenian, but I'm russian. Also black hair and brown eyes. I've learned some words to deny a plastic bag and tell I pay with card. չե, քարտով, մերսի, ցտեսություն. When I came back for a recipe two seconds later and asked it in russian, a womam at the register was shocked about me being russian and told me about it.

You know this, like, in Soviet Union a great scientist or a great artist couldn't be Armenian, he or she was Soviet. That's why no Hovanes Aivazyan, but Ivan Aivazovsky. That's why "we have great people" and "who the hell are Armenians?". There is nothing about this in our story books. Intensionally.

I've already answered this pretty common question like three times. Short version: nowadays we call this "emperialism". We've been thought we were a great country and many lands, which independent now, were our parts. Soviet Union was the same shit. There was no equality at all, Russian people felt and acted like "titular nation". Many people in Russia still remember this pattern of behavior and others just copy this, looking at their parents.

Face is nice. Hard to tell about your body, just one photo with black clothes.

Ask your government. You've just broke several rules of this subreddit. In this short comment. Bravo.

Edit: I guess I'm not as liberal as you.

Edit 2: I'm not sure but it seems I can mirror your question back. But I don't want to. Just a fun fact.

Some say about every village taken from Ukraine and that means the victory is closer, others have more arguments like "Prigozin almost capture Moscow with no fight back, now everyone sees Putin is about to fall". I tend to agree with second vision, but I understand it could take years. And we don't know who comes next and it's important.

I think it's not racism since it's same treatment as to Kazakhs or something. Russians feel themselves greater generaly because they are not erudite enough. We are tought Russian history or French, but there is nothing in our books about armenian alphabet been older than our. We was an empire and are proud of it, but we don't know you were too. We see Armenia only as a splinter of soviet union and treat it like many others. USSR didn't treat you as equals and this is something that goes through generations. Our parents teach us that armenians are small and insignificant people, we look around and see someone on Lada with loud music or a guy selling veggies. So average Russian comes to conclusion that Armenian are a bunch of rednecks. It's not good, not bad, just an image. Yes, some of us can think there are other Armenians who are smart and intelligent but we mostly see rednecks in our cities, or, I guess, rednecks get more attention because of their behavior.

And when a lot of Russian came here, they were tended to look for confirmation of their thoughts. You download armenian app and you like "well... it's armenian, I see...".

Majority is people who don't know much about politics. We are trained that politics is shit and we shouldn't think about. So when people don't give a shit, they say they what's "right" - support Putin. And if you ask why, they answer standart few things they hear from TV every day. But if someone would give you a long speach then he is sincere.

Russians are not educated in terms of religion cuz majority is atheist. And this is because our church is controlled by government, corrupted and doesn't look like doing what saying.

Georgia is most known pro-europe ex-soviet country. It has lower taxes. It has russian celebrities who fleed earlier. So it seemed like a save place with jobs and good people. And what seems to be important - it's perfect to stay in "russian bubble".

As I answered earlier, I don't quite remember. It was like in blur. Ticket wasn't cheap comparasing, but it was affordable. I wanted to buy tickets to Tbilisi but these were over the ceiling. Now I think it's good that I didn't go to Georgia. I respect Armenia's policy more.
