Should Russia join the EU?
t. American foreign culture enthusiast!

EU is for European coutries, isn't it? I mean that Russia is Asian country mostly. Geographically, you know.
>>52118708
If Russia joined the eu it would be pretty bad for america desu
A Russian-German-French Axis would tilt the balance of the world.
>>52118708
>>52118708
I doubt EU can handle one more poor Eastern European country.

>EU is for European coutries, isn't it?
Sicne they accepted Spain and Portugal not anymore.
>>52118708
EU should join russia :^)
>>52118708
Not worth it.
Joining EU would mean abandoning their slaves like Belarus, Kazakhstan and the rest of CIS.
Russia trades a lot with them. Joining EU would mean becoming a kek and having to abandon everything.
>Free immigration between EU countries
There's not a snowball's chance in Hell of Ivan accepting this.
Russia, in it present form, cannot join EU.
In EU plans it must be balkanized first.
Divide and rule.

You need to have things like democraxy and human rights to get into the EU and as those things are considered to be against Russian culture I don't ever see it happening.
Dunno about joining EU, but it's about fucking time Germany/France joined a strategic alliance with Russia.
USA has been compromising EU's security for decades now, and quite a few people are fucking tired of it.

> conveniently ignores every US lapdog village-state that shat on human rights but was still fast-tracked into the EU
leave the thread, lardass
I don't think it would be a good idea to have Russia in the European Union since its population is almost double the next largest country in Europe.
No, they will be involved in the crisis

>Dunno about joining EU, but it's about fucking time Germany/France joined a strategic alliance with Russia.
That would result in total chaos.
Americans see Western Europe as being completely against Russia and willing to die fighting against Russia at all costs.
>>52118708
On roughly equal terms and subject to same (already relaxed) standards as other countries and subject to sanctions should it drift away from those standards?
Yes, it should. It would be good for everyone involved, with possible exception of American hawks.
As a privileged member with numerous concessions, its present cryptofascist form of government in naive hopes that it will develop and reform under natural economic forces?
Absolutely not.
>>52121039
I agree with that.
Yeah, along with Australia, Japan and Indonesia. All fine european countries.
>>52118708
It would have to be vastly weakened through every imaginable form of Balkanization. America would prevent it through a series of convinent events otherwise.
Imagine Russia was part of EU

Well, EU is already pretty proficient with them asterisks, they can handle it.

We actually have a lot of real syrians and even had many of them before since soviet-Assad friendship. We just don't have pakis, iraqis etc.
