Putin, you see, did not shake the British ambassador’s hand in the Kremlin, did not speak to him, and generally refused to come closer than 70 feet, citing health reasons. 😂

    I think its because of US policies and funding of NGO's in Eastern Europe who spread nationalism and anti USSR history throughout. I was listening a podcast of https://open.spotify.com/show/3R28kE3Z0qgqwTWR4C6uBx where an American professor in history told the host that most Russophobic propaganda are spread through various NGOs and Gulag memorial .

    I think the early colorful revolutions in central Asia and Europe was to bring all these countries more close to US sphere and thereby strong Russophobia while religion also plays a role but I suppose the background propaganda and intense anti USSR notion in academia and intelligensia also plays a role .
