@herrhaber907610 months agoAs a french i have to say i am not really surprised. The comments are interesting and i believe that europeans (not just the french) are closer to russians i am surprised none of them mentioned cheese, which is one of the many reasons some of my friends who were living in moscow 10 years ago are now in paris: i am even more surprised that the " general good feeling" russians had towards french (what i felt from my visit in 2013) has not changed with the current invasion of ukraine. what did i see in this video? Smart, educated people that i would love to know better.
