Unfortunately, with the two rounds of elections in Russia coming, one this year (I think) and the Presidential one next year, we are likely to see a lot more of this. The issue of patrotism has always been big in Russia/USSR, a bit like environment in the West. A good card to play in the run-up to elections. What I do not particularly enjoy in these publications it's the undertone of 'vile capitalism', 'our history versus profiteering', this kind thing. I hope it's only my imagination.
