If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

No-one in their right minds would ever, willingly visit Russia!

Yeah, right…

I can just see us westerners; all fighting each-other to get to the front of the queue…

What's an underrated/unknown novel or series that you think deserves more attention?

(…and the Russians are paranoid that we in the west want to “INVADE” them!!!… Yeah, right… >In their bloody dreams<)!

Carson, Segal, Musk, Trump… (add to the list as applicable)…

(Which rather explains something else)…

Has Great Britain ever been considered a "hyper-power" like the United States or Russia are currently considered? If not, why?

Cheers!

Or; more likely, fighting each-other - trying to push someone-else (anyone-else) ahead of ourselves.
