Turkish journalist Guven: Russians have positive traits and deserve respect stated that the Russians deserve respect. In the text, he also described the characteristics of the people.
According to him, Russians are honest, and their children are not spoiled and calm, which is associated with genetic characteristics, the style of upbringing and education.
At first it may seem that the Russians are “calm, even angry people,” the author noted. “But I would say that they do not like to exaggerate themselves and those who do it. For the most part, Russians are honest, they want friendship to develop over time, based on trust. Cold and restrained behavior at first may change after people recognize you and begin to trust you, “Guven noted.
The author also said that he had been watching Russians for three years when he lived in Moscow. “It was always interesting for me to observe old, plump aunts (grandmothers) whom I met mainly in museums. Despite their venerable age, they are always very attentive and active, “the journalist emphasized.
He noted that flowers are of great importance to Russians, since flower shops are located almost on every corner and are open 24 hours a day. According to the author of the article, flowers are of great importance on birthdays, at concerts, and especially on March 8th. “On this day, you can see a bouquet in the hands of almost every woman on the street,” the Turkish correspondent added.
In addition, Guven listed the difficulties that the Russians had to face, highlighting the wars and the harsh climate. “To defend and develop a country with enormous important resources, to fight a harsh climate, survive the great wars and depressions, and after the impressive experience of communism, like a fish washed ashore, suddenly find yourself in capitalist conditions. All this must be difficult, “the journalist concluded.
Earlier in November, Professor Salih Yilmaz, a lecturer at Yildirim Beyazit University in Ankara, warned that Russia's presence in northern Syria, in the regions bordering Turkey damage to relations between Moscow and Ankara.
