    It’s a meme so I don’t take it seriously cause otherwise it’s terribly wrong. West didn’t want Russia to join them. Western corporation/families wanted to gain controll over rich natural russian resources. Putin stopped that in 90s. And that’s why we’re where we’re…

      The idea that Putin, who has spent the past 20 years entrenching the kleptocratic oligarchy and putting a great deal of effort into welcoming Western investment into Russia, is the one who saved Russia from the evil Western ‘corporation/families’ seeking ‘rich natural russian resources’ is… absurd.
