<h3>Why does Russia blame us for their suffering during the last couple of decades?</h3>
The US didn't do anything to Russia. But I keep seeing posts that blame the US for their poverty. Are they just looking for someone to blame for their own failure?
<strong>Russia best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by Me Ne Frego</i><br/>Yeah we did. GHWB, during the Reagan years, convinced the Saudi's to increase production of oil in favor of the U.S., specifically to drive down the cost of oil, which bankrupted the Soviets who were heavily reliant on their oil exports.
I don't know if they resent this or not, but that is what happened. That, and the arms race of course, which is of neutral value since we both got sucked into that.</p>
