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.

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

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

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

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