Your “New Russia” is just like “New” England; or “New” York; or “New Hampshire.” In other words, it is NOT Russia; just as New England is NOT England; and New York is NOT York; and New Hampshire is NOT Hampshire.==

For New England and New York you may be right but Novorossiya always was a part of Russia from founding time. Simply during soviet times commies teared it off from Russia. Temporary. Commies gone now so Novorossiya is returning back.

And, you talk about spying on its citizens? Russia is probably the biggest offender in that regard, and has been for a hundred years, at least.==

Your “probably” is not a fact but your insinuation. And I care less if US government spy on her citizens. But the fact that the guy who reveled this had to ran out of US for shelter in other country. It give us a taste of REAL “democracy” in US.

“…but Novorossiya always was a part of Russia from founding time.”

No, it hasn’t.

“Your ‘probably’ is not a fact but your insinuation.”

Nice try, Ivan. You either know nothing of your own country’s history or you are a liar. And I suspect it is the latter.

“And I care less if US government spy on her citizens.”

Of course you care less! Because your homeland does it as a matter of routine, you likely assume it is the norm everywhere. But, while your homeland engages in it, and thus it has been accepted as routine; we here in the US – with the exception of Democrats – very much oppose our government spying on the citizens. We do NOT accept it.

“But the fact that the guy who reveled this had to ran out of US for shelter in other country. It give us a taste of REAL ‘democracy’ in US.”

Snowden violated his security clearance and compromised his own government. That is why he beat feet to Russia and charges were brought against him here. And what did Russia do for him? Russia made him a Russian citizen! Probably as consideration for Snowden giving up some American national security information to Russia when he got there.
