Genealogy / Do you think all Slavs are white? [178]

Look at the current mayor of Moscow - he's considered white in Russia

He is not considered white. Russians do not have such epicanthus. He was born in Khanty-Mansi, so he's half Asian, Mansi probably.

Life / What is the reaction of Poles to Russian? [95]

So, none of you think that Russian have quite large non-slavic vocabulary? Let's start with a few: loshad' , yarlik, glaz, karaul, almaz, tyurma.

"glaz" is of Slavic origin (compare with Polish "glądać"). Some say about German origin ("glass") though.

Food / What made in Poland produce would you recommend [110]

Polish companies exported goods to Russia worth $1.45bn (€1.09bn)

But Polish brands are almost unknown here anyway. May be $1.45bn is not enough. May be exported goods are non-Polish brands, like Opel/Ford/Chevrolet cars.

Here in Russia it's hard to see something Polish (except old movies and books). May be some cosmetics? Not sure. Fortunately I have Polish rubber keyboard (MEDIA-TECH Polska Sp. z.o.o., Halinow, Poland), made in China though. It's horrible.
