>>507955441>defining Russia as a state by Russians and for RussiansEvery single person living in Russia is a Russian, you dumb fuck. All of the 180+ ethnic groups and nationalities that are living here, are Russians. Russian is not an ethnicity, it is not a nationality. It is a state of mind, thought, and soul. Anyone can become a Russian, for as long as he loves the country, respects it's history, it's people, the land, and abides by it's rules/laws.
A whole ton of "foreign immigrants" from all over the yurop, American continent, and Asia came here and got themselves fully "naturalized", became actual Russians, in recent years. Burgerlards, Britbongs, Aussies, Leafs, Nips, Koreans, Chinks, Latinos, Brazilians, Persians, French, Icelanders, Swedes, Norwegians, you name it. All of those people who learned the language, respect the culture, history, and people, don't act like asshat retards and genuinely love the land, obtained full Russian citizenship.
