Russia is mostly Orthodox Christian and Western Europe is Catholic.

Russia once was ruled by czars, western Europe never had czars.

Western Europe is ruled by democratic republics but Russia was ruled by communism.

Answer 2

In the only city of Moscow there are 50'000 homeless children and entire families die every winter for plagues like malnutrition, Alcoholism or heroin addiction.

But they say Russia is the 9th largest and growing economy in the world.

In every single Eu country even the idea of malnutrition is inconceivable, but most of these nations aren't in G20, have half of Russian GDP and they say are in economical crisis.

And the fact that Russia could lead world's economic, politic, cultural events scares me, more then a little.
