     @hakui not really, russian protests have always been peaceful. it's always been police officers and paid shills provoking violence

     two very different thoughts are being said by putin:"russia will always find a way to protect her interests. we will protect them within international regulations." (in regards to recent cyberattacks)and"we want to welcome more tourists. once the pandemic is over, we will allow people to apply for e-visas for 4 days"

     putin's new reforms are pretty ambitious. loans to rebuild infrastructure (3% for 15 years, no more than 500 bln roubles), trying to get the regions to be less reliant on loans etc. would be good if those promises actually came to fruition...
