Lavrov arrived in Alaska wearing a sweatshit that says "USSR" because shirt with "Russia" on it would not draw any attention and would mean nothing.

Russian propaganda and the Russian delegation are trying to present the Alaska meeting as a remake of the summits of the superpowers - the USSR and the USA - ignoring the reality and the very essence of the meeting.

The "USSR" writing on the Russian foreign minister's sweatshirt speaks of the current Russian sense of state inferiority and is, in fact, a public statement about Russia's imperial ambitions, demonstrating the desire to return to the past and revive the USSR.

Of course, these fantasies are just that - fantasies. They just show how far the Kremlin comrades are from reality (and also they ruined a beloved Beatles song for many people).
