Ford, Honda, Chrysler, Jeep, Toyota, BMW all have new factories in Russia.

I did not know that. That is good news.

Yes, many new company move factory to Russia. Russia start to insist that if you sell in Russia, you produce in Russia...opposite US policy, also interesting, Japanese debt to earnings 16:1, US 2:1, Russian .5:1. Russia run surplus for 4 years, always growing too and monies off limits to Duma for spending, it used to pay back debt and prepare for any down turn. Russia this year around 7% growth.

Russia has a long way to go. The hinterlands will not benefit for ten years, at least. But it is very arrogant to think Russia will fail to become part of the West. The Russian people have a tremendous will be reintegrate with Europe.
