      Hate towards. Russia is a popular thing nowadays… make up a sob story and the west gives you money… it’s business and not just for some persons but for the leadership of some countries… the only way some countries survive is making up fairy tales about terrible Russia and earning money with that. Sick world!

    This video is so disappointing and the title misleading. I lived and worked in Sochi and around some 30 years ago for one year, and the city was beautiful even then. Here, city is not shown at all. We only see reporter's head and interiors of some spaces and the owners. but not Sochi at all.

      Cheap ad, I'd say. Average Russian citizen can't afford Rosa Hutor, and real "garage renting industry" looks waaay more shitty and expensive. Not mentioned problems with sewage system in town, locals say that it hasnt been repaired since soviets and fresh shit dumps strait to the sea. In confirmation to this - overcrowded local hospital with people (especially children) with gastrointestinal infections during summer season. Me and my child were sick for three to five days every vacation we were there. But who cares! Tourist infrastructure that was built for olimpic games hasnt paid off itself, so they trying to attract international tourists by buying those ads.

      @@Untouchable1345 You can read history books and you will understand that, when Russia occupied Georgia, Georgia's land size was 110km², and now it's 69km². Why? Because when Georgia got its independence, Russia sold Georgia's land to its neighbors. Russia took Sochi and Dvaleti, Azerbaijan - Saingilo (Zaqatala region), Armenia - Lore province, and Turkey - Lazica, Tao, (called Samtskhe). This happened first in 1919 and then 1921. And the last war we had with Russia in 2008, Abkhazia and Samachablo was occupied.
      The thing is that Georgia will get Abkhazia and Samachablo back, with America's and NATO's help, BUT... The lands I mentioned were also occupied, because Russia sold them. Before this was the case, the UN, NATO countries, and the whole of Europe was saying that Georgia's International Border is 110km². And then 4 wars happened and now they are all silent because they don't want to "upset Russia". Well.... we can wait.
