Putin is lucky that the vast majority of Russians are too poor to own a car.

Your comments always amuse, as they also spark curiosity. In this case:

Russia -- 364 per 1,000 vehicles
Ukraine -- 237 per 1,000 vehicles

If you'd been a clever Маркус, you'd have led with North Korea, at 1.1 per 1,000 vehicles.

It's an interesting metric, as rather prosperous Singapore weighs in at 172, while automobile ownership in the US is bested by -- wait for it -- a few nations. San Marino, Guernsey (UK), Gibraltar (UK), Jersey (UK), Andorra, Liechtenstein, Brunei, Taiwan and New Zealand. Those countries must be really "stronk." With exclamation points.

Poor us on this sea island, We've only got two.
