I am ethnically Bashkir but was adopted and brought to the US at a young age and have never known anything about my culture. Thanks for uploading! I want to try to make chak chak at home.
Eli, I am a 65 year old attorney in NJ in the US and I think you do more to make Russia a real place with real people instead of all the negative stuff we here in the US, I will never travel to Russia or to any of the places you go, but I love watching you journeys and especially now your family, and your young brother, the best chef in the world, is just the best !!!!!! where is his site, thanks :)
these people are NOT russians. Bashkortostan is one of many other TURKIC nations that have been under russian occupation for so many years. russia forces their men to join the army aganist Ukraine. These people fight for their freedom!
Then you should know that Bashkortostan is not Russia and that the people living there are not ethnical Russians. It´s a Russian colony and the people fight for their freedom. They do not, to my understanding, want to belong to Russia. Unfortunately - and I say this as a Swede and neighbour of Russia - many of the negative things you hear about Russia and the Russian people are correct. They do not have the best reputation among it´s neighbours, to put it mildly. But again: The people in Bashkortostan are not ethnically Russian and their native language is a Tartar one, it´s not Russian.
I'm not a native Russian speaker... so... catching everything said is always a challenge but your sister was so easy to understand... I don't know if its an accent or just speaking very clearly... but it was awesome.
This video makes me good vibes and I all the time just laughted. Your sisters have a lot of positive energy. I love watching your videos. Hugs from Poland! 😘🫶🏼
@@ElifromRussia you are so crazy and i love it....also blond girl has a very bright future ahead of her if she move to acting industry and....i just dont know if there is some irish people in russia best regards from Serbia Eli
@Diane M what has Ukraini got to do with this? I am from Afrika 🇿🇦 and dont care what you people in Europe do to each other . This is about Eli and her family .
The fact there is so much diversity and yet people still can relate and get along is one of the wonders of Russia. Thanks for shining a light on another region of Russia I knew nothing about, and there was nothing in that food I would turn my nose up at. You and your sisters are a comedy troupe, and it was very entertaining. Thanks for sharing, Eli. A lovely treat for my weekned.
Cracks are coming. Many indigenous peoples had no choice of joining the Russian empire. What you call a wonder is actually coercion from an authoritarian government.
@Diane M Word Ukraine in Russian literally sounds like "edge, borderland". And isn't it Ukraine that needs generators, since its power plants being destroyed?
@Diane M Do you know where Bashkiria is? From what could she become free, if "separated from Russia"? One thing is for sure - then these three sisters would not be able to meet so easily.
@@mrobocop1666 In many slavic languages "o-krai" means "edge" in general meaning or in geographical meaning. Linguistically "krai" is geographical area and prefix "o" means something around, distant from centre. So it is not surprising, that there was term in old russian geography "eastern okraine" which were eastern borderland territories, now called "far east". As opposite to "western okraine" now "ukraine".
Your younger cousin has a near-perfect accent when she speaks English. I like the sound of Tatar. Thanks again for posting this video of Bashkortostan with your cousins.
Speaking English without accent does not make sense, because accent is the only thing that you bring to the word, that tell everyone about your homeland. I think everyone should have accent
Hi Miguel, greetings from the other side of the border, I live in Chiapas. Just a piece of information: This is not Russia anymore than Guatemala is or ever was a part of Spain. The ethnicity of the people is not slavic, it´s Turkish and they struggle for not belonging to Russia. It´s "Russia" just iin the meaning that it belongs to the Russian federation, but again: The same way the Spanish wanted your people and the world to believe that you in same way belonged to Spain. Which was of course nothing but a colonial lie.
Bashkortostan is nice...I'm from the Netherlands but I lived in Russia for 7 years with my wife. In Kazan. One day I said. THAT'S IT Today we will have fun in Ufa! So we went there by bus...Craziest little vacation we ever had. Everything we planned was replaced by better things. We go on the street to walk, people come with us to show us the city. We go have a drink, the bar in a 80's style calls their friends to make it party for new guests. I repeat a guy from a +100500 video: Moskva g*vno! A Ufa za*bis! And we get free bish barmak. It was maslenitsa so we burned a straw doll in the forest close to our apartement and suddenly it was sunny and + 3 C. We will never forget Ufa. It was only for 2 days, but we felt good vibes everywhere we went. And that is only Ufa, not the rest of Bashkiria. Kumyz though...Yes I know that tends to torment your belly a bit. Next time you drink Kumyz eat some cucumber and garlic with it. It helps. :)

@@thomaswateren3967 Ok , wauw ja Rusland trekt ergens aan mij. Ben er nog nooit geweest maar juist de culturen lijkt me erg mooi. tevens vindt ik de 70 a 80 style erg cool. Ik zou erg graag willen karper vissen daar.

The addition of traditional Baskir music adds so much to this video. It has the feel of having been passed down generation after generation. And recording your grandmother singing it is brilliant!
same food (korot) which mean dried we turkmen in north of iraq we also eat it made by yugurt which is turkish word not english with bugda wheat and then we dry it and eat it in winter and i have been so happy to hear your grand mother singing in turkish old traditional song with my all love to you and your big family
Thanks so much, I am learning quite a lot about Russia as a whole and doing so I truly love it more day by day! A friend from northern Ontario, Canada.
@Diane M its is good because this region is an autonomous region and the Russian government does not meddle with the local ethnic minorities culture and religion if you are loyal to motherland, they don't try to push their ideology and agenda to local ethnic like in the west, they won't stop you if you want to built mosque or wear a burqa or hijab or religious ruling unlike in France. Russia have the largest population of Muslim in the whole of Europe and most of them are white, especially in the Caucasus mountain where the ethnic majority there is Caucasian Muslim or Circassian and Chechen tribes.
@Diane M You should know that Wikipedia is written by people. And some people write at the dictation of politicians. who want the public opinion they need. Come to Russia and see with your own eyes.
@Diane M Politicians who need people to suffer. At the same time, these politicians cooperate very well with businessmen who profit well from the troubles of Europeans. For example, they blew up a gas pipeline. to sell expensive liquefied gas to Europeans. In addition, many businesses in Europe will now close and move to the United States. Perhaps you have a limited Internet connection and you cannot collect data and economic indicators. You could see how much the shares of military companies in the United States have grown.
@Diane M Okay, who are the innocent people, you mean that Ukrainians do not shoot? And have not done so for almost 8 years? Propaganda videos, are frequent in media, so what?
Read your history, not what media claims. Russia took back Krim, and have not occupied Ukraine. Sovjet occupied east Europa, like USA did and do the same thing in the west. And this war is Russia against NATO. The Ukranian forces have since the American made coup 2014 whit help of NATO built up an Fascist army. Whom since 2014 killed 13000 Russians, among them 432 children !! The regim has banned the Russian language, culture and so forth. They have along the border to Dombass built havy fortifications And just being shelling civilians.
@Diane M From where I get it? England, France and Canada, have for 8 years trained Ukraian Troops up to Nato standard. In preparations for this war. Meanwhile Russia the whole time has only claimed a neutral Ukraina. And like I said Ukraina has fortified the border to Dombass.Crimea that has always belonged to Russia, but for a period bettween 1994 - 2014. The aggressor is Nato, with Ukrain as an Proxy.
I read the sign outside of that cafe where you tried the food, it was written Chaihane, in Turkish it is Çayhane, so it is the same. Tavuk is chicken also in Turkish. Horse milk is also called Kımız in Turkish.
Watching as a Turkish person made me realize once more how much we all have in common. I hope I can visit and explore Ufa and Kazan one day and meet people
We are Eurasia, and we have been trading and livibg with each other, sharing millenary culture for centuries and centuries. The partition of land into states is unnatural, we always have so much more in common than differences...
“Kurut” is made from yogurt in Turkey. Süzme yogurt is concentrated yogurt that contains some water compared to kurut. Bashkir korot looked more like süzme yogurt. Tarhana soup is basically sun dried yogurt , tomatoes and flour, a popular dish. In the olden times, soldiers‘ field ration was basically kurut and dried meat, light in weight rich in nutrients; just add water for a delicious meal.
I enjoyed living in Ufa for a year with my Russian/Bashkiria wife and son. I would tell people that we lived in the last city in Europe and that on a clear day from our apartment we could see Asia.
Good evening to the 3 beautiful ladies.a simple leaving such as in the province's of the Philippines.thank's eli to sharing with your RUclips channel.godbless you
Another great video! Eli posts. Within an hour she garners over 3600 views and 787 Thumbs Up. Congratulations, Eli, on making your channel such a delightful success!
Your videos are very informative about the many cultures forming the Russian nation. Your way of informing outsiders is simple, fun and informative. I like your sisters who make a great team and show warmth in your family.
@@Slicky165 Yeah, stupid people project their own flaws on others all the time. It's all that they do, basically. Often related to nothing, like your comment for example, i can't see that it's related to the post in any way.
Don't pay attention to the comments under your message. Diana is a paid commentator from the Center for Information and Psychological Operations of Ukraine. Its goal is to discredit Russia. We don't pay attention to such people. She gets paid money. In poor Ukraine, this is one of the ways to earn money. Look with your own eyes and believe yourself.
@Diane M I think you should write about what Ukrainians are doing to peaceful people in Ukraine. About terrorist acts. about the executions of civilians. About the torture of prisoners. About artillery shelling of civilian objects. In the Western press, for example, they do not write anywhere about the video with the murder of civilians by the Nazis of the Azov regiment in Kupyansk. And it was killing Ukrainian citizens. I think they did the same thing at Butch (and all for the sake of PR). Tell us about the rocket attack by the Ukrainian military on the Kramatorsk railway station. If not for the Italian journalists who photographed the serial number of the rocket engine, Russia would have been blamed for this again. And this is what the Zelensky government is doing in order to arouse the hatred of Ukrainians and European citizens. You should also inform us that The Guardian newspaper tells us what shrapnel was used to kill Ukrainian citizens. These fragments, called flashes, are used in Ukrainian artillery shells. Russia was blamed for these murders. Zelensky, under the leadership of America, did this to disrupt the peace talks.
@Diane M You say we have an authoritarian regime, but when the constitution of Russia was changed, a referendum was held. You had an unconstitutional coup in the country, and also changed the constitution 4 times without a popular vote. Is this a democracy? The government of Ukraine is criminal and controlled by the American government. American businessmen do not care how many Ukrainians will die. Biden fired the prosecutor of Ukraine threatening not to give Zelensky money (the prosecutor of Ukraine was investigating Hunter Biden). We have many friends in Ukraine and we know the truth. And you call this truth nonsense. Also, the Nazi Azov regiment was located behind the backs of civilians and fired. Thus hiding behind a human shield. And civilians were not allowed to evacuate from the city of Mariupol. Columns with refugees were destroyed. You are just a person who is paid for comments and you are not a resident of Ukraine.
Thank you so so much for making such a lovely video about my homeland! Right now I'm studying at Moscow, and this video felt like a breath of fresh air, a piece of home. Love your videos, keep doing what you do!
Elinochka, by the dicatate of your sister TAKE US TO DISTANT VILLAGES hahaha 🤣… anyway, super video with great content… beautiful women eating delicious food in an exotic local… the perfect algorithmic content formula. Your sister is a trip and I’m surprised if she doesn’t start her own channel… and your channel is an addiction for me… keep up the great work😉!
I love your videos Eli. I love the introduction of your sisters. Blonde sister has wonderful personality. You complement each other beautifully and then you have a shy sister. Beautiful
Eli, just to let you know and hopefully to put a big smile on your face, I give you a Thumbs Up before any video you upload starts playing! Great content as always! Keep the great work.
Great fun to watch and experience. Ufa, Bashkortostan and Tatarstan are most definitely on my wishlist. Very happy, fun loving sisters and interesting food.
Hi Eli! This video really amused me because you have some very nice and funny sisters. Your traditions are also very valuable to me, like the songs and dishes you presented which, besides being aesthetically beautiful, I think are also good. Congratulations on this fun and cultural video.
I don't understand what your problem is. What propaganda? The one referring to the geopolitical situation? I do not see any propaganda and no connection with Russian political relations. I saw a video in. which a youtuber girl has involved her sisters for her video in which she introduces her visitors to the channel to one of the many traditions of her city and the languages they speak. Also, I saw three girls who want to live their lives like all boys in the world. For me it was a video with informative and cultural contents. I did not know that in Ufa, as in many parts of Russia, more languages are spoken besides Russian which is the official language and, therefore, they use signs with the languages they speak in the cities and for me this fact was highly informative. Culturally, there are the ancient clothes that the nomadic people of the Ufa region wore, the songs, and the food they showed us at the restaurant. I did not know all these things and, thanks to the work that Elina does, I was able to enrich my cultural background which. I wouldn't call it propaganda at all. Also, for me information is useful for the simple fact that if I want to make at least one trip to Russia, I don't go blindly, therefore, I know where I want to go. Let me give you this speech Diane M, I think you are a little jealous of Elina who has been able to create a job and who is having a lot of success and is also appreciated for what she does. I want to give you some advice, if you have any hobbies or there is something you like to do in life, roll up your sleeves, don't look anyone in the face and make it happen. Don't stand still and look at others and criticize what they do. I greet you with peace of mind.
Excuse me you! But you found the time to answer me! Since you give these answers I am forced to give you another speech to tell you what you make me understand about you. If you do not have the patience and curiosity to read what your interlocutor writes to you, I doubt that you have anything constructive to say and I must think that you are an envious troublemaker at the expense of others who try to do something constructive, informative and nice. Let me know a little bit you, where and what should I know what Elina is showing about real Russia? But are you Russian or what nationality? I'm Italian. You mention the situations all because of Russia, like this, in a very general way. Of course it worries and pains me for months what what the Russian army is doing through the special operation to the Ukrainians. Instead, do you know that many Russian mothers, fathers and sisters are worried or are they already mourning their children and brothers who are leaving for the front or who have not returned alive? Many of those guys do not want to be on the front, unfortunately, they are forced to enlist and leave. I myself am terribly afraid of nuclear bombs and if they blow up nuclear power plants. I condemn the decisions that a single man is making, but only him and not all of Russia and I believe I have the mental capacity to understand and know how to make certain differences and, in this case, the difference is the Russian Federation and the Russian people. which are two different things. Obviously, there are the Russians who approve of what their president is deciding, but they are not the whole. Therefore, you are making a shit out of everything. Also do you believe that with your poor comment to alienate my beliefs and change my mind about what I think? You are very wrong! You make me understand all your envy you feel towards Elina and want to undermine her channel, plus, you are pushing me to counter you in your miserable comments so that those who read my comments can step away from Elina's channel. In the end, I believe your attempts to subvert the normal course of Elina's channel are all in vain. I give you another advice, no longer follow Elina's channel and that of anyone else because you are not a person who is at peace with herself. After this comment, I will no longer answer you out of respect for Elina and, if I find another arrogant answer of yours, it means that you really don't have the will to read and understand the thoughts of others. Greetings.
Wonderful video as usual, Eli! The time stamps look professional and convenient. Your English is improving, though I always found it was good. Thanks for this latest video ☺️
There are Russian guys remodeling the house next door to me now here in the Midwest USA. I thought of you and your videos about how many different regions and traditions there are in Russia.
all these TURKIC nations were destroyed, killed, assimilated by russians. these people were forced to speak russian. russia depopulated them and placed russians in their lands to create and expend more russian population. and these nations are claiming their independence. putin came to power and took away the autonomy right from these Turkic republics. The very few countries who were able to gain their freedom after the collapse of communist soviet union were KAZAKHISTAN, UZBEKISTAN, KIRGHIZISTAN, and AZARBAIJAN. and russia hates these TURKIC nations and their TURKIC UNION against their authority. russia sends their men to Ukraine war, to fight against the Ukranians . russian govenment comes to these people's houses and forced to join the russian army. These people don't want to be in the battle field against Ukraine. the communist russia forces them.
Просто классно как вы веселитесь вместе и тем временем даже учите и показываете нас так много интересного из этого региона России! Спасибо вам большое за эти чудесные впечатления! И действительно круто, что твоя подруга учит немецки! Ей с этим самых успехов и с моей стороны большого уважения! Как и русский язык это мой родной язык нелегко учиться.😉Пока из Германии!
Your channel is wonderful and very informative. My family’s patriarch came from North Ossetia. He left there in the mid-1860s and settled in the Black Sea coast of the Ottoman Empire. I have a cousin with the same red hair and skin tone as you (beautiful). I am learning my family’s lost history/culture from you. Thank you, I very much appreciate your efforts. 🙏
You girls were very fun to watch. And your culinary "evaluations" was very entertaining. Elina, you MUST go to the villages and sample their foods there for comparisons sake. You cannot tease all of your fans with just a small bit of food. And take your sisters too. Especially your sisters. Thanks for the fun.
That was fun! I would definitely love to try some Bashkir cuisine. I'm not a milk drinker though...lol I'm sharing this video on my Facebook page with all my friends!
The milk products and the pastries of the cuisine all look and sound familiar even though I never had any chak chak or kımız in my life. We have a similar looking drink called “ayran”. The word for chicken seems to be identical: tavuk. Also I think three of you not giving up the Tatar language can be useful. It’s a connection to many others and the Turkic world. The sister studying linguistics could add a lot to her skills with relatively small effort. Thanks for these informative videos.
I love this video, Elina. Your cousins are awesome. You should make more videos with those two girls. Maybe some videos cooking with your 12 year old cousin Mansur. Maybe more family videos with your uncle, aunt, grandmother. You have a wonderful family, Elina. Thanks.
@Diane M You have a problem with beautiful countries and women? I am an American and I'd be happy to show you what REAL propaganda is 24/7/365 just from CNN alone.
@Diane M no they don't. Do you live under a rock or what the hell are you talking about? It's 2021, GULAG is the name of the ministry and it was located in Moscow, not Siberia. In addition, it ceased to exist in 1959. I can't even discribe how much you, uniducated CNN/FOX/BBC children disappoint me with your stupidity again and again. This world is falling into the abyss because of your empty-headedness, thanks to which the false media and politicians control your thinking with such efficiency. Sad reality, we can only hope that your hatred of others will not escalate into a catastrophe and you will destroy yourself in its fires before harming others even more. Look around, your society is divided and hate each other, and you indulge this with your silly following of the mainstream agenda and inability to think for yourself like a sheep.
Ciao da Italia, Firenze. A Bosnian here. Allora in Bashkir language chai-hana is tea shop, right? È molto simile al turco. In Bosnia abbiamo nomi simili. Kafana (Kafa-hana) is a coffee shop. It is cool that you also have a mix of Turkic/sh and Slavic lexicon like we in Balkan have. Beautiful Euro/Asian mixture you Bashkir and Tatar people are. Right in the middle. Meravigliose!
@@centerous411 Yes Bashkir is a Turkic language as they say in English. And Chaihana (Çayhane) also appears in the Kerkuk folk song Kalenin Dibinde, which I like to listen from Abdurrahman Kızılay. Selam olsun Türkmeneline
Eli has a fantastic style. At first it seems much like a tourism video of the region, but then we cut to her and her 2 'sisters'. Their adventure through the city was such a joy. The blonde cousin is a natural on camera, and her limited English was a positive not a negative, as she switched between languages. And it was a surprise to hear the other cousin at the end, who seemed so shy, to talk about her thoughts about leaving.
So fun. Your sister and cousin are both adorable. Learning about those various dishes served at that restaurant was interesting and, of course, fun. Thank you doing and sharing this video. Showing the modern (paying for the bus ride, and your cousin searching for an answer to a question on her smart phone) and at the same time seeing traditional (different traditional foods) was so interesting.
@Diane M Yes. Real people. Good people. Living their lives however they choose, with joy, is always interesting. I loved hearing Eli's grandmother singing! There was a sense of dignity but also of impishness. She was not singing the song. She was the song. It was a living tradition. There was life in it. I love that.
@Diane M Oh my. I want to be sensitive to what Eli herself said on her channel. She said watching the war in Ukraine was like being a child and watching your mommy and daddy go through an ugly divorce. Dianne, I think you have oversimplified the situation. I believe the Russian people are smart and they know exactly what is going on -- and the situation is sad. Make no mistake, it is not "Putin" but Russia that is at war. The Russian people are decent and would not put up with Russia committing any atrocities. And, believe me, they would know. The Russian people clearly support this war, sad as it is. Early in the war, there were Russian soldiers in Ukraine that did not want to fight in this war. Then Ukrainian Bandara Nazi skinheads from the city of Lviv captured some Russian soldiers and released a video on the internet showing them torturing and killing their Russian POW's. Nobody made them do it. It was not propaganda. They were showing off. They thought it was funny. Their video went viral in Russia. Russian soldiers began to realize who and what they were fighting. There are long standing ethnic hatreds, historic injustices going back to and before the 1930's, ugly ideologies, dirty money, organized crime -- you name it. There are MANY bad guys fighting in this war. For instance, the Nazi Skinheads have been attacking and trying to kill the last remaining Marx-Lenin Communist true believers who are held up in their stronghold in Severodonetsk. These two nasty forces have been fighting back and forth since 2014. Whatever news you are watching, you are not getting the whole story and the whole truth. I am convinced Russia is not committing the atrocities the Western media is accusing it of. The Russian people would not put up with that. Eli's channel is not "Russian Propaganda." Despite what is going on all around her, Eli is just a beautiful young woman living her life to the fullest. I just want to say, with a big smile on my face "GO GIRL"!
@Diane M You are a COWARD. What Eli has shown is that there are several hundred "real Russia's", AND everyone everywhere feels that they belong to "Mother Russia". Admit it. You are just an arrogant stinking troll. Either that, or you are an arrogant stinking idiot. Actually, you could be both. I think you are both an arrogant stinking troll and an arrogant stinking idiot. Yep. I nailed it. Have a nice day, Stinky.
@Diane M You just "SLIMED" me, Eli and all of her followers with your put downs and nastiness and I do not appreciate it. I am not Russian. I am a patriotic American. But I have Ukrainian friends in Kharkov. They speak Ukrainian at home. In the 2014 Kharkov referendum they voted to stay a part of Ukraine. Then they voted for Zelenski because his campaign promise was to make peace with the two breakaway provinces and stop the fighting -- but when he was in office he did the exact opposite. They tell me it is the Kviv Nazi skinheads, and Azov Brigade who have committed the war crimes and atrocities, not the Russians. On the next referendum they are going to vote to join Russia. How dare you, Diane. Drop dead. Get a life. Leave Eli alone. Stop sliming us.
@Diane M Apology accepted. I forgive you. You just don't know so much. And that is not your fault! I will explain why. The war actually started in 2014 after the Maiden Coup. The Azov and Lviv brigades started shelling cities in the Donesk and Lugansk killing innocent older people, children, women -- some Ukrainians but mostly Russian. They killed 14,000 civilian people in schools, hospitals, apartment buildings -- on purpose over 8 years. You don't know about this because the mainstream western press refused to report on it. But many people in Russia know people living in Ukraine. Most of Russia knew about it -- by word of mouth. My friends living in Kharkov knew about it. Eventually, many Russian people demanded that Putin do something about it. If he didn't, it seriously looked like there was going to be genocide. I forgive you if you don't believe me, but that is the truth. I would not have known except for my friends in Kharkov. I was able to Google it and prove it to myself. I feel really sorry for the Ukrainian people. They are caught in the middle. Putin actually does have a 75% approval rating in Russia. The Russian people, including most of the soldiers in this war are decent people.
I loved this video do much, u have wonderful sisters so sweet and interesting and intelligent. Love to see sisters having fun and going out. Do one with your young brothers soon, thanks also the food looked delicious.maybe there in restaurants in nyc with this type of food, lol.

You are a good person, and it is a pity that you do not have the opportunity to visit such a beautiful country as Russia.

these people are NOT russians. Bashkortostan is one of many other TURKIC nations that have been under russian occupation for so many years. russia forces their men to join the army aganist Ukraine. These people fight for their freedom!
Then you should know that Bashkortostan is not Russia and that the people living there are not ethnical Russians. It´s a Russian colony and the people fight for their freedom. They do not, to my understanding, want to belong to Russia.
Unfortunately - and I say this as a Swede and neighbour of Russia - many of the negative things you hear about Russia and the Russian people are correct. They do not have the best reputation among it´s neighbours, to put it mildly. But again: The people in Bashkortostan are not ethnically Russian and their native language is a Tartar one, it´s not Russian.

@Diane M what has Ukraini got to do with this? I am from Afrika 🇿🇦 and dont care what you people in Europe do to each other . This is about Eli and her family .
The fact there is so much diversity and yet people still can relate and get along is one of the wonders of Russia. Thanks for shining a light on another region of Russia I knew nothing about, and there was nothing in that food I would turn my nose up at. You and your sisters are a comedy troupe, and it was very entertaining.
Thanks for sharing, Eli. A lovely treat for my weekned.
Cracks are coming. Many indigenous peoples had no choice of joining the Russian empire. What you call a wonder is actually coercion from an authoritarian government.
@Diane M Word Ukraine in Russian literally sounds like "edge, borderland". And isn't it Ukraine that needs generators, since its power plants being destroyed?
@Diane M Do you know where Bashkiria is?
From what could she become free, if "separated from Russia"?
One thing is for sure - then these three sisters would not be able to meet so easily.
CIA can't infiltrate Russia that's why they can live in peace together .
@@mrobocop1666 In many slavic languages "o-krai" means "edge" in general meaning or in geographical meaning. Linguistically "krai" is geographical area and prefix "o" means something around, distant from centre.
So it is not surprising, that there was term in old russian geography "eastern okraine" which were eastern borderland territories, now called "far east". As opposite to "western okraine" now "ukraine".
Thank you girls for showing another interesting part of Russia. Hello from Malaysia.
Your younger cousin has a near-perfect accent when she speaks English. I like the sound of Tatar. Thanks again for posting this video of Bashkortostan with your cousins.
Speaking English without accent does not make sense, because accent is the only thing that you bring to the word, that tell everyone about your homeland. I think everyone should have accent

So much variety of people in Rusia, cheers from Xela, Mayaland: Guatemala, central america.
Hi Miguel, greetings from the other side of the border, I live in Chiapas. Just a piece of information: This is not Russia anymore than Guatemala is or ever was a part of Spain. The ethnicity of the people is not slavic, it´s Turkish and they struggle for not belonging to Russia. It´s "Russia" just iin the meaning that it belongs to the Russian federation, but again: The same way the Spanish wanted your people and the world to believe that you in same way belonged to Spain. Which was of course nothing but a colonial lie.
Thanks for showing the traditional food culture in your native region!! Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Bashkortostan is nice...I'm from the Netherlands but I lived in Russia for 7 years with my wife. In Kazan. One day I said. THAT'S IT Today we will have fun in Ufa! So we went there by bus...Craziest little vacation we ever had. Everything we planned was replaced by better things. We go on the street to walk, people come with us to show us the city. We go have a drink, the bar in a 80's style calls their friends to make it party for new guests. I repeat a guy from a +100500 video: Moskva g*vno! A Ufa za*bis! And we get free bish barmak. It was maslenitsa so we burned a straw doll in the forest close to our apartement and suddenly it was sunny and + 3 C. We will never forget Ufa. It was only for 2 days, but we felt good vibes everywhere we went. And that is only Ufa, not the rest of Bashkiria. Kumyz though...Yes I know that tends to torment your belly a bit. Next time you drink Kumyz eat some cucumber and garlic with it. It helps. :)

Een paar documentjes bij of de ambassade in Den Haag of daar vlakbij het visumburo. Karpervissen is een onderneming, dat weet je. schuwe dieren. als je een echte stek wil vinden vind dan iemand in de buitensteden of de dorpen. Die mensen nemen je met alle plezier mee. Alsof het hun een eer is. Let wel, ik ben ook visser, dit gaat tijd kosten en zeer vroeg op! ;)
The addition of traditional Baskir music adds so much to this video. It has the feel of having been passed down generation after generation. And recording your grandmother singing it is brilliant!
Now that was fun! I have never seen three more beautiful women together before in my life! Thank you Eli for sharing your sister's with us.
I am from SOMALIA, EAST OF AFRICA . GOOD TO SEE again.
When you moved from your family and made other video’s I immediately started to miss them and the videos.
Thanks for bringing more !
@Diane M Who was killing east Ukrainians since 2014 ? I think they were not happy about that… to bad nobody gave a crap about them either
Love your watching your show. Very good information from Russia which most in the West were unaware
@Diane M Wikipedia is a garbage. Only children go there for information.
This opening sequence is amazing 😍
👏
same food (korot) which mean dried we turkmen in north of iraq we also eat it made by yugurt which is turkish word not english with bugda wheat and then we dry it and eat it in winter and i have been so happy to hear your grand mother singing in turkish old traditional song with my all love to you and your big family
Hi, Eli! Your energetic sister is quite a lovely character. Love her!!😘
@Diane M sure do.
@Diane M Ukraine and Russian are brothers the Anglo saxons devil USA and uk make them enemy
@Diane M well you can start from here ruclips.net/video/JeWHviwLMy8/видео.html
Your cousin/сестра is so funny) I hope she continues to practice English and appears in more of your videos
Thanks so much, I am learning quite a lot about Russia as a whole and doing so I truly love it more day by day! A friend from northern Ontario, Canada.
@Diane M its is good because this region is an autonomous region and the Russian government does not meddle with the local ethnic minorities culture and religion if you are loyal to motherland, they don't try to push their ideology and agenda to local ethnic like in the west, they won't stop you if you want to built mosque or wear a burqa or hijab or religious ruling unlike in France. Russia have the largest population of Muslim in the whole of Europe and most of them are white, especially in the Caucasus mountain where the ethnic majority there is Caucasian Muslim or Circassian and Chechen tribes.
@Diane M ты что за сепаратист такой? Во всех каментах гадишь.
@Diane M You should know that Wikipedia is written by people. And some people write at the dictation of politicians. who want the public opinion they need. Come to Russia and see with your own eyes.
@Diane M Politicians who need people to suffer. At the same time, these politicians cooperate very well with businessmen who profit well from the troubles of Europeans. For example, they blew up a gas pipeline. to sell expensive liquefied gas to Europeans. In addition, many businesses in Europe will now close and move to the United States. Perhaps you have a limited Internet connection and you cannot collect data and economic indicators. You could see how much the shares of military companies in the United States have grown.
@Diane M используй переводчик и всё будет понятно. Украина Украиной... Но Башкирия - это Россия. Всё.
My dear girl, such nice , warm videos can only be made from someone with a big heart :) Quite apart from such good reason. ♥ Thank you!
🫶🏻🫶🏻
Eli are leading your life in a very interesting country. And you make good videos, whit nice people around. What ever you do, keep it going.
@Diane M Okay, who are the innocent people, you mean that Ukrainians do not shoot? And have not done so for almost 8 years? Propaganda videos, are frequent in media, so what?
Read your history, not what media claims. Russia took back Krim, and have not occupied Ukraine. Sovjet occupied east Europa, like USA did and do the same thing in the west. And this war is Russia against NATO. The Ukranian forces have since the American made coup 2014 whit help of NATO built up an Fascist army. Whom since 2014 killed 13000 Russians, among them 432 children !! The regim has banned the Russian language, culture and so forth. They have along the border to Dombass built havy fortifications And just being shelling civilians.
@Diane M From where I get it? England, France and Canada, have for 8 years trained Ukraian Troops up to Nato standard. In preparations for this war. Meanwhile Russia the whole time has only claimed a neutral Ukraina. And like I said Ukraina has fortified the border to Dombass.Crimea that has always belonged to Russia, but for a period bettween 1994 - 2014. The aggressor is Nato, with Ukrain as an Proxy.
@Diane M I know, you just read media
I read the sign outside of that cafe where you tried the food, it was written Chaihane, in Turkish it is Çayhane, so it is the same. Tavuk is chicken also in Turkish. Horse milk is also called Kımız in Turkish.
It's good to have you back Eli , on the move again in different parts of Russia 🇷🇺🇭🇲
@Diane M So they deserve carefree fun while their country murders and rapes the next door neighbors? I don't get it
Love your spirit and joy, another awesome video
Watching as a Turkish person made me realize once more how much we all have in common. I hope I can visit and explore Ufa and Kazan one day and meet people
Yes, wellcome! With love from Ufa!
Yes but they influenced so much from Russia
We are Eurasia, and we have been trading and livibg with each other, sharing millenary culture for centuries and centuries. The partition of land into states is unnatural, we always have so much more in common than differences...
“Kurut” is made from yogurt in Turkey. Süzme yogurt is concentrated yogurt that contains some water compared to kurut. Bashkir korot looked more like süzme yogurt. Tarhana soup is basically sun dried yogurt , tomatoes and flour, a popular dish. In the olden times, soldiers‘ field ration was basically kurut and dried meat, light in weight rich in nutrients; just add water for a delicious meal.
I enjoyed living in Ufa for a year with my Russian/Bashkiria wife and son. I would tell people that we lived in the last city in Europe and that on a clear day from our apartment we could see Asia.
Wow. Do you speak russian or bashkiria?

Very nice video, looks like you're having fun! The food looked very tempting. Another beautiful place you have taken us to. Thank you!
Another great video! Eli posts. Within an hour she garners over 3600 views and 787 Thumbs Up. Congratulations, Eli, on making your channel such a delightful success!
Your videos are very informative about the many cultures forming the Russian nation. Your way of informing outsiders is simple, fun and informative. I like your sisters who make a great team and show warmth in your family.
They do NOT form the Russian nation, but the Russian empire. This is not Russia anymore than Mexico was or have ever been Spain. It´s colonialism.
@@mattias5157 "The scandinavians are so sad and defeated and pathetic." - Tucker Carlson
He is not entirely wrong.
@@Slicky165 Yeah, stupid people project their own flaws on others all the time. It's all that they do, basically. Often related to nothing, like your comment for example, i can't see that it's related to the post in any way.
Russia is a very interesting country with so many cultures and places
@Diane M Russia does not need to have more, it simply returns its lands that Ukraine illegally occupied.
@Diane M Russian lands of Novorossia, which were annexed by Lenin to Ukraine. You should learn some history my immature friend.
Don't pay attention to the comments under your message. Diana is a paid commentator from the Center for Information and Psychological Operations of Ukraine. Its goal is to discredit Russia. We don't pay attention to such people. She gets paid money. In poor Ukraine, this is one of the ways to earn money. Look with your own eyes and believe yourself.
@Diane M I think you should write about what Ukrainians are doing to peaceful people in Ukraine. About terrorist acts. about the executions of civilians. About the torture of prisoners. About artillery shelling of civilian objects. In the Western press, for example, they do not write anywhere about the video with the murder of civilians by the Nazis of the Azov regiment in Kupyansk. And it was killing Ukrainian citizens. I think they did the same thing at Butch (and all for the sake of PR). Tell us about the rocket attack by the Ukrainian military on the Kramatorsk railway station. If not for the Italian journalists who photographed the serial number of the rocket engine, Russia would have been blamed for this again. And this is what the Zelensky government is doing in order to arouse the hatred of Ukrainians and European citizens. You should also inform us that The Guardian newspaper tells us what shrapnel was used to kill Ukrainian citizens. These fragments, called flashes, are used in Ukrainian artillery shells. Russia was blamed for these murders. Zelensky, under the leadership of America, did this to disrupt the peace talks.
@Diane M You say we have an authoritarian regime, but when the constitution of Russia was changed, a referendum was held. You had an unconstitutional coup in the country, and also changed the constitution 4 times without a popular vote. Is this a democracy? The government of Ukraine is criminal and controlled by the American government. American businessmen do not care how many Ukrainians will die. Biden fired the prosecutor of Ukraine threatening not to give Zelensky money (the prosecutor of Ukraine was investigating Hunter Biden). We have many friends in Ukraine and we know the truth. And you call this truth nonsense. Also, the Nazi Azov regiment was located behind the backs of civilians and fired. Thus hiding behind a human shield. And civilians were not allowed to evacuate from the city of Mariupol. Columns with refugees were destroyed. You are just a person who is paid for comments and you are not a resident of Ukraine.
This is a great video! Thank you for sharing. You and your sisters are a real joy!

Looks like you girls were having fun , enjoyed the video very entertaining

Hello Eli👋🏻 this video was so much fun! You girls reminded me of me and my cousins 😄😙💃🏼💃🏽💃♥️
Nice video Eli !! And nice family👩👩👧 (and please ignore or delete the trolls)

Yeah I have heard this Arab music in France. YAH RAH...
You guys crack me up. You ladies remind me of my daughters finding fun wherever they can. Thanks for sharing I loved it.
Elina (now there is a lovely name) you and your sisters seem like you would be a lot of fun to hang around with.
Your sister speaks great English.
Eli, you need to invite them along more often, you ladies are super!
Beautiful. Great family. Great video. So good to see you smiling and hear you laughing.
Elinochka, by the dicatate of your sister TAKE US TO DISTANT VILLAGES hahaha 🤣… anyway, super video with great content… beautiful women eating delicious food in an exotic local… the perfect algorithmic content formula. Your sister is a trip and I’m surprised if she doesn’t start her own channel… and your channel is an addiction for me… keep up the great work😉!
Wow look incredible city ☺️❤️

Eli, just to let you know and hopefully to put a big smile on your face, I give you a Thumbs Up before any video you upload starts playing! Great content as always! Keep the great work.
Your videos are so nice! Thank you for sharing
Your sister is very expressive. She should become an actor
The three of you are so much fun together! Please keep making videos with your sisters 😁💕
Great fun to watch and experience. Ufa, Bashkortostan and Tatarstan are most definitely on my wishlist. Very happy, fun loving sisters and interesting food.
Your family is so much fun! Each of you should have your own RUclips channel.
Hi Eli! This video really amused me because you have some very nice and funny sisters.
Your traditions are also very valuable to me, like the songs and dishes you presented which, besides being aesthetically beautiful, I think are also good.
Congratulations on this fun and cultural video.
I don't understand what your problem is.
What propaganda? The one referring to the geopolitical situation?
I do not see any propaganda and no connection with Russian political relations.
I saw a video in. which a youtuber girl has involved her sisters for her video in which she introduces her visitors to the channel to one of the many traditions of her city and the languages they speak. Also, I saw three girls who want to live their lives like all boys in the world.
For me it was a video with informative and cultural contents.
I did not know that in Ufa, as in many parts of Russia, more languages are spoken besides Russian which is the official language and, therefore, they use signs with the languages they speak in the cities and for me this fact was highly informative.
Culturally, there are the ancient clothes that the nomadic people of the Ufa region wore, the songs, and the food they showed us at the restaurant.
I did not know all these things and, thanks to the work that Elina does, I was able to enrich my cultural background which. I wouldn't call it propaganda at all.
Also, for me information is useful for the simple fact that if I want to make at least one trip to Russia, I don't go blindly, therefore, I know where I want to go.
Let me give you this speech Diane M, I think you are a little jealous of Elina who has been able to create a job and who is having a lot of success and is also appreciated for what she does.
I want to give you some advice, if you have any hobbies or there is something you like to do in life, roll up your sleeves, don't look anyone in the face and make it happen. Don't stand still and look at others and criticize what they do.
I greet you with peace of mind.
Excuse me you! But you found the time to answer me!
Since you give these answers I am forced to give you another speech to tell you what you make me understand about you.
If you do not have the patience and curiosity to read what your interlocutor writes to you, I doubt that you have anything constructive to say and I must think that you are an envious troublemaker at the expense of others who try to do something constructive, informative and nice.
Let me know a little bit you, where and what should I know what Elina is showing about real Russia?
But are you Russian or what nationality? I'm Italian.
You mention the situations all because of Russia, like this, in a very general way.
Of course it worries and pains me for months what what the Russian army is doing through the special operation to the Ukrainians.
Instead, do you know that many Russian mothers, fathers and sisters are worried or are they already mourning their children and brothers who are leaving for the front or who have not returned alive? Many of those guys do not want to be on the front, unfortunately, they are forced to enlist and leave.
I myself am terribly afraid of nuclear bombs and if they blow up nuclear power plants. I condemn the decisions that a single man is making, but only him and not all of Russia and I believe I have the mental capacity to understand and know how to make certain differences and, in this case, the difference is the Russian Federation and the Russian people. which are two different things. Obviously, there are the Russians who approve of what their president is deciding, but they are not the whole. Therefore, you are making a shit out of everything.
Also do you believe that with your poor comment to alienate my beliefs and change my mind about what I think? You are very wrong!
You make me understand all your envy you feel towards Elina and want to undermine her channel, plus, you are pushing me to counter you in your miserable comments so that those who read my comments can step away from Elina's channel. In the end, I believe your attempts to subvert the normal course of Elina's channel are all in vain.
I give you another advice, no longer follow Elina's channel and that of anyone else because you are not a person who is at peace with herself.
After this comment, I will no longer answer you out of respect for Elina and, if I find another arrogant answer of yours, it means that you really don't have the will to read and understand the thoughts of others.
Greetings.
Your videos are very informative and well presented. Love from India 🇮🇳♥️🇷🇺
Wonderful video as usual, Eli! The time stamps look professional and convenient. Your English is improving, though I always found it was good. Thanks for this latest video ☺️
There are Russian guys remodeling the house next door to me now here in the Midwest USA. I thought of you and your videos about how many different regions and traditions there are in Russia.
all these TURKIC nations were destroyed, killed, assimilated by russians. these people were forced to speak russian. russia depopulated them and placed russians in their lands to create and expend more russian population. and these nations are claiming their independence. putin came to power and took away the autonomy right from these Turkic republics. The very few countries who were able to gain their freedom after the collapse of communist soviet union were KAZAKHISTAN, UZBEKISTAN, KIRGHIZISTAN, and AZARBAIJAN. and russia hates these TURKIC nations and their TURKIC UNION against their authority. russia sends their men to Ukraine war, to fight against the Ukranians . russian govenment comes to these people's houses and forced to join the russian army. These people don't want to be in the battle field against Ukraine. the communist russia forces them.
thank-you for making these videos, I've never seen much on the Russian people you are really helping people come together, God Bless.
Просто классно как вы веселитесь вместе и тем временем даже учите и показываете нас так много интересного из этого региона России! Спасибо вам большое за эти чудесные впечатления! И действительно круто, что твоя подруга учит немецки! Ей с этим самых успехов и с моей стороны большого уважения! Как и русский язык это мой родной язык нелегко учиться.😉Пока из Германии!
eli is back
Your channel is wonderful and very informative. My family’s patriarch came from North Ossetia. He left there in the mid-1860s and settled in the Black Sea coast of the Ottoman Empire. I have a cousin with the same red hair and skin tone as you (beautiful). I am learning my family’s lost history/culture from you. Thank you, I very much appreciate your efforts. 🙏
You girls were very fun to watch. And your culinary "evaluations" was very entertaining. Elina, you MUST go to the villages and sample their foods there for comparisons sake. You cannot tease all of your fans with just a small bit of food. And take your sisters too. Especially your sisters.
Thanks for the fun.
That was fun! I would definitely love to try some Bashkir cuisine. I'm not a milk drinker though...lol I'm sharing this video on my Facebook page with all my friends!
Eli, wonderful video! Very entertaining interesting and informative. Your family is funny. I can't wait until the next adventure. Thank you.
Love seeing you with your "sisters", would really like to meet your Mom. Family helps complete the picture. Loved seeing your Dad months back.
The milk products and the pastries of the cuisine all look and sound familiar even though I never had any chak chak or kımız in my life. We have a similar looking drink called “ayran”. The word for chicken seems to be identical: tavuk. Also I think three of you not giving up the Tatar language can be useful. It’s a connection to many others and the Turkic world. The sister studying linguistics could add a lot to her skills with relatively small effort. Thanks for these informative videos.

I love this video, Elina. Your cousins are awesome. You should make more videos with those two girls. Maybe some videos cooking with your 12 year old cousin Mansur. Maybe more family videos with your uncle, aunt, grandmother. You have a wonderful family, Elina. Thanks.
@Diane M You have a problem with beautiful countries and women? I am an American and I'd be happy to show you what REAL propaganda is 24/7/365 just from CNN alone.
@Diane M Bwahahaha! Come to the U.S. and let me show you what REAL propaganda is.
Eli sister is amazing. So much joy!
Wow! Would love to visit!
You all did great, very informative 😃
Looks very exotic and different. I will try these when I visit Russia. Keep making wonderful content. 🇮🇳🤝🇷🇺
@Diane M no they don't. Do you live under a rock or what the hell are you talking about? It's 2021, GULAG is the name of the ministry and it was located in Moscow, not Siberia. In addition, it ceased to exist in 1959. I can't even discribe how much you, uniducated CNN/FOX/BBC children disappoint me with your stupidity again and again. This world is falling into the abyss because of your empty-headedness, thanks to which the false media and politicians control your thinking with such efficiency. Sad reality, we can only hope that your hatred of others will not escalate into a catastrophe and you will destroy yourself in its fires before harming others even more. Look around, your society is divided and hate each other, and you indulge this with your silly following of the mainstream agenda and inability to think for yourself like a sheep.
@dianem7677wait until you hear about Guantanamo Bay
Ciao da Italia, Firenze. A Bosnian here. Allora in Bashkir language chai-hana is tea shop, right? È molto simile al turco. In Bosnia abbiamo nomi simili. Kafana (Kafa-hana) is a coffee shop.
It is cool that you also have a mix of Turkic/sh and Slavic lexicon like we in Balkan have.
Beautiful Euro/Asian mixture you Bashkir and Tatar people are. Right in the middle.
Meravigliose!
Best care language Turkish language or similar and Iraq same thing we call it try chayi khana
I mean bashkerain language is Turkish language
@@centerous411 Yes Bashkir is a Turkic language as they say in English. And Chaihana (Çayhane) also appears in the Kerkuk folk song Kalenin Dibinde, which I like to listen from Abdurrahman Kızılay. Selam olsun Türkmeneline

Eli has a fantastic style. At first it seems much like a tourism video of the region, but then we cut to her and her 2 'sisters'. Their adventure through the city was such a joy. The blonde cousin is a natural on camera, and her limited English was a positive not a negative, as she switched between languages. And it was a surprise to hear the other cousin at the end, who seemed so shy, to talk about her thoughts about leaving.
Thank you for sharing and the sister who sits in the middle has a heart of gold. ))
So delicious. Would like to be there. This video gave me a lot of cooking ideas
Loved seeing your sisters. Nice to go around and see different nationals.
So fun. Your sister and cousin are both adorable. Learning about those various dishes served at that restaurant was interesting and, of course, fun. Thank you doing and sharing this video. Showing the modern (paying for the bus ride, and your cousin searching for an answer to a question on her smart phone) and at the same time seeing traditional (different traditional foods) was so interesting.
@Diane M Yes. Real people. Good people. Living their lives however they choose, with joy, is always interesting. I loved hearing Eli's grandmother singing! There was a sense of dignity but also of impishness. She was not singing the song. She was the song. It was a living tradition. There was life in it. I love that.
@Diane M Oh my. I want to be sensitive to what Eli herself said on her channel. She said watching the war in Ukraine was like being a child and watching your mommy and daddy go through an ugly divorce. Dianne, I think you have oversimplified the situation. I believe the Russian people are smart and they know exactly what is going on -- and the situation is sad. Make no mistake, it is not "Putin" but Russia that is at war. The Russian people are decent and would not put up with Russia committing any atrocities. And, believe me, they would know. The Russian people clearly support this war, sad as it is. Early in the war, there were Russian soldiers in Ukraine that did not want to fight in this war. Then Ukrainian Bandara Nazi skinheads from the city of Lviv captured some Russian soldiers and released a video on the internet showing them torturing and killing their Russian POW's. Nobody made them do it. It was not propaganda. They were showing off. They thought it was funny. Their video went viral in Russia. Russian soldiers began to realize who and what they were fighting. There are long standing ethnic hatreds, historic injustices going back to and before the 1930's, ugly ideologies, dirty money, organized crime -- you name it. There are MANY bad guys fighting in this war. For instance, the Nazi Skinheads have been attacking and trying to kill the last remaining Marx-Lenin Communist true believers who are held up in their stronghold in Severodonetsk. These two nasty forces have been fighting back and forth since 2014. Whatever news you are watching, you are not getting the whole story and the whole truth. I am convinced Russia is not committing the atrocities the Western media is accusing it of. The Russian people would not put up with that. Eli's channel is not "Russian Propaganda." Despite what is going on all around her, Eli is just a beautiful young woman living her life to the fullest. I just want to say, with a big smile on my face "GO GIRL"!
@Diane M You are a COWARD. What Eli has shown is that there are several hundred "real Russia's", AND everyone everywhere feels that they belong to "Mother Russia". Admit it. You are just an arrogant stinking troll. Either that, or you are an arrogant stinking idiot. Actually, you could be both. I think you are both an arrogant stinking troll and an arrogant stinking idiot. Yep. I nailed it. Have a nice day, Stinky.
@Diane M You just "SLIMED" me, Eli and all of her followers with your put downs and nastiness and I do not appreciate it. I am not Russian. I am a patriotic American. But I have Ukrainian friends in Kharkov. They speak Ukrainian at home. In the 2014 Kharkov referendum they voted to stay a part of Ukraine. Then they voted for Zelenski because his campaign promise was to make peace with the two breakaway provinces and stop the fighting -- but when he was in office he did the exact opposite. They tell me it is the Kviv Nazi skinheads, and Azov Brigade who have committed the war crimes and atrocities, not the Russians. On the next referendum they are going to vote to join Russia. How dare you, Diane. Drop dead. Get a life. Leave Eli alone. Stop sliming us.
@Diane M Apology accepted. I forgive you. You just don't know so much. And that is not your fault! I will explain why. The war actually started in 2014 after the Maiden Coup. The Azov and Lviv brigades started shelling cities in the Donesk and Lugansk killing innocent older people, children, women -- some Ukrainians but mostly Russian. They killed 14,000 civilian people in schools, hospitals, apartment buildings -- on purpose over 8 years. You don't know about this because the mainstream western press refused to report on it. But many people in Russia know people living in Ukraine. Most of Russia knew about it -- by word of mouth. My friends living in Kharkov knew about it. Eventually, many Russian people demanded that Putin do something about it. If he didn't, it seriously looked like there was going to be genocide. I forgive you if you don't believe me, but that is the truth. I would not have known except for my friends in Kharkov. I was able to Google it and prove it to myself. I feel really sorry for the Ukrainian people. They are caught in the middle. Putin actually does have a 75% approval rating in Russia. The Russian people, including most of the soldiers in this war are decent people.
I am from India... It was a nice journey with Eli showing cuisines and all fun that she had with her friends...
