Perhaps Oleg is running out of money; perhaps they want the West to better understand Russia's involvement in the 2nd World War. Perhaps both?

Either way, I hope they are successful. regardless of your politics, Russia has not been given it's due appreciation for stopping Nazi Germany.

edit:: Ooh, I realise how contentious this is going to become. Let me say frankly: without Russia fighting Nazi Germany, I would most likely be speaking German now. Whether or not I agree with current or past politics, I am grateful to those Russians who fought Hitler, and kept fighting him, allowing a second front to develop.

So, basically, I think the world should recognise this effort a little bit more. Whatever political feeling you may have, no-one wanted the Nazis. And Russia suffered most opposing them. This reduced the burden on other countries, allowing them more ability to attack, as opposed to merely defending, as they were doing before. Russia absorbed the Nazi war-machine.

Again: no politics: simply put, Russia suffered and endured so much in defeating the Nazis, but you'd think that my nation and a few others were the only ones that put some effort in, if you listened to the media.
