    Recently I’ve visited Volgograd and on my way back to Moscow, on a map I saw… Urupinsk! I was so excited, because this is a city from an anecdote, and many people even think that this town doesn’t exist, so I had to visit it! Thank you a lot for watching 😉 and here’s the link to join my Russian Speaking Club 📍 elinabakunova.com/russianclub . We start soon!

    I am enjoying seeing Russia with your help. My Maternal Grandparents were from Saratov. They relocated to Canada during the Revolution in 1918. I grew up in Southern California, a very long way from Russia. We currently live in Washington State, USA. I started watching you because you look exactly like our oldest granddaughter! You could be twins, you look so much alike! Maybe we are related. Be safe in your travels, some places look so dangerously cold.

      Russia, as part of the genocidal war against Ukraine, seeks to deny the right of the Ukrainian state and people to exist, harbours expansionist illusions that cause destruction.
      Russia's blatant threats to other countries and continued blackmail show that Russia is preparing for a much larger and longer-lasting conflict against the democratic world.

      Russian 'soul'? Russian 'soul' at work in Ukraine...was at work in 1944 in Grozny ( when the total Chechnya population was deported by Stalin and a quarter of them died )and again in 1994 and 1999 in Grozny ( when a fifth of the population was killed) There was Russian 'soul' in the obliterated city of Aleppo and in at least ten totally obliterated towns and cities in Ukraine from 2022 and continuing now. About 5 million Ukrainians were starved to death by the Russian 'soul' in the 1930s
      Judging from those few 'events' among so many the Russian soul = destruction and oppression

      @@daydays12 Well, to begin with, Ukrainians began killing Russians in 2014 after the fascist coup in Kiev with the support of the United States. Victoria Nulland announced the cost of this coup - 5 billion. In 8 years, Ukrainians have killed 14,000 Russian civilians in Ukraine. Don't tell me this is the first time you've heard this. Tell me the reasons that prompted Putin to launch a military operation. Let's see your knowledge. Russia has taken all imaginable steps to ensure that there is no war and has not entered the war for 8 years. Tell me the steps Russia has taken to resolve the conflict in Ukraine since 2014. Let's check your knowledge. For Chechens. They actively collaborated with Hitler during the Second World War. And Stalin dealt with the traitors in his own style. On the Holodomor in Ukraine. You are repeating the Ukrainian version. Famine in those years was not only in Ukraine. And it is not true to present this as a special action of the authorities. This leads to the question why Stalin made Ukrainians out of Russians (the process was called Ukrainization), Why did Lenin call the Land of the Russian Empire Ukraine, because until 1922 you will not find any Ukraine on the maps. Why did Poles and Austrians agitate Russian prisoners in the Terezin and Talerhoff concentration camps to start calling themselves Ukrainians?

    How many of you long for the time, not so long ago, when towns like this were common in America? Sadly, those days are mostly gone. I'd love to visit Urupinsk, a town which can remind Americans of when their country had not sunk into decadence and extreme behaviors. Thank you Eli, for the brief look at a provincial Russian town.

      Yes, this is the unspoken truth in many peoples mind these days, so very sad to see everything people fought and died for being destroyed by the liberals.

      They’re still pretty common. Everywhere. And I’m from Jersey, 20mi from NYC, and yet even here, in the denser populated state in the country there are thousands of small, cute, towns like this. Decadence. Seriously? Very few can afford real decadence.
