I'm not Russian, but if I were I would propably take this comment as an insult. Besides, I'm 100% sure that the economy of Europe would be not like it is today without the huge amounts of energy and materials imported from Russia.

And yes, that comment (or the whole discussion about "what Russia has to offer") has nothing to do about the subject of this thread.
