Nationalist AND expansionist?? :hmm: As opposed to Finns, who are just nationalist or ?? :rotfl: What a silly poll options.
Russia won't be a 'part of europe' in a sense that Germany is a part of Europe. Russia actually doesn't need Europe - it's big and self sufficient country, as opposed to so many nations that make up Europe. I assure you, Russia doesn't even want to be a part of EU or any other elite local club. The only place the want is WTO.
Regarding democracy bit, again, democracy means different things to different people.
I can smell that behind your poll (and judging by your comments in the past) is just one thing: you hope Russia breaks up and Korelia becomes part of Finland. And the hell with the rest of the country, and its people.
