They'd steal money anyway, but in this case the attention to the results of the projects will be greater, so this could be not that bad. : )
You'd better imagine German national team playing in Stlingrad or Königsberg :-)

Russia is definitely making a comeback as a country to host international events!
The Eurovision was great in Russia and I am sure that hosting Football VM will be great for Russia. England is really annoyed and the papers are full of allegations that Russia was running a "dirty" campaign. I wouldn't know either way but I think it was nice to see that Russia will be hosting it - congrats!
