”Russia is an Empire.”

Laughable.

A wannabe empire, perhaps.

With a population 5.5 times Australia’s and a GDP only slightly higher than Australia’s…and rapidly shrinking by the day.
It’s more like a corporation with a shrinking customer base, falling turnover and profits…desperately trying to make an unsolicited and unwelcome take over of another company with valuable resources.
