If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

Yeah, right…

Or; more likely, fighting each-other - trying to push someone-else (anyone-else) ahead of ourselves.

Carson, Segal, Musk, Trump… (add to the list as applicable)…

Canadians went out of their way to help Americans stranded in Canada after 9.11.2001. Why did Canadians help so much the way they did? We read that Canadians don't particularly like Americans to begin with.

No-one in their right minds would ever, willingly visit Russia!

Cheers!

(…and the Russians are paranoid that we in the west want to “INVADE” them!!!… Yeah, right… >In their bloody dreams<)!

I can just see us westerners; all fighting each-other to get to the front of the queue…
