Hey Marcus -

My Russian is not so bad that I cannot read what you have written. As the moderator says, you will not get me into a debate about Putin. All I can tell you is that for us Americans, Putin in the face of Russia. Whether you like that or not, it is a fact. I did not hate Putin personally. I simply did not like his policies. I don't hate anyone. Hate is too strong a word to use. Putin never did anything to me personally. I was simply trying to tell everyone why I lost my interest in studying Russian.

K, I can respect what you're saying. My interest in Russia is in its people, its culture, its music, food, dancing, architecture, history - oh, especially its old and wonderful history - but not so much in politics.
