Russians are cold blooded. Life & death means nothing to them. That's why they make good mercineries hired by even French and British armies for some battles in Mali, Sudan and Niger.
You are actually right!!! A documentary on aljazeera about Russia depicted this very well. A high ranking Russian official described an average Russian as a vagabond that fears no form of violence. A brief check on their history actually shows they are a fearless group.

In the eyes of greedy westerners, Russia is just too big to exist as a single entity.
They want to break it up, carve up its oblasts as vassal states.

Be more fearful of the CIA. They ve been responsible for toppling African government.

But that will never happen. It can only happen under the rulership of drunken buffon like Gorbachev, a foolish leader that will piimp his daughter and wife for a bottle of vodka.

He was solely responsible for the dissolution of the ussr, making Russia weaker. The Russia of today is no where near the strength and might of soviet Union thirty years ago.

The good news is that Russia is fully aware of the western plan and have seen the true color of the west, and will never allow it to happen. They witness how the west through nato destroyed Yugoslavia, breaking it into vassal states and adding them to nato.

They saw when Gaddafi was killed, Saddam Hussein hanged, Venezuela destroyed, Syria almost bombed to stone age until Putin saves Assad, and many more. Russia knows what the west have in plan for them and are prepared.

The era of buffonic leaders like Gorbachev or the current puppet Navalny is gone.

Alaska was a former Russian territory. Russians sold it to US.
This is what Google says about the border between Alaska and russia
"The stretch of water between these two islands is only about 2.5 miles wide and actually freezes over during the winter so you could technically walk from the US to Russia on this seasonal sea ice."
