Thread: Russian Politician wants Russia to use the Euro, to "save" it....

On the other hand, NOBODY thought that the USSR would disintegrate, and the EU is a lot more shaky than that. Maybe Russian media is thinking along those lines.
Well, time will tell. The thing is, I think the individual nation states in Europe (most of them) are simply too small to stand up for themselves against larger powers like the US, Russia, China etc.
If we want our voices to be heard, we have to unite. Plus, as a peace project it's been very successful.

Europe will soon be overrun by the Zerg immigrants. You'll be probably wearing a hijab by the time you get old.

This time I can't argue with you....
See my travel blog about the village of "Sauna Swamp". Even this place has a small immigrant camp. It's an arch Christian place in the middle of the taiga... And in the local grocery shop turns up a pregnant black girl of about 15, wrapped from head to toe in a Somalian chador or whatever it's called... In the Somalian desert that's probably the perfect way to dress but.... Apparently those kids are "unaccompanied minors". Somehow they got all the way from Somalia to Sweden illegally and then they apply for political asylum. Once a child gets asylum, the whole family is entitled to come to.... And they don't work... live off the state.... (Where is this craziness going to end..... ?)
