Hello,

Tried asking this before, but was clipped by Reddit filter.

In a nutshell, what do you think of the Soviets' influence on Eastern Europe? Good or bad thing. In the Baltics, Poland, Moldova that period is presented quite negatively.

Also, is this taught in school?

In some Eastern Euro cities (like Riga, Chisinau, Krakow) there are museums/monuments dedicated to, what they consider to be, Soviet abuses of the local population. Do you think they are fabricating lies?

Why does Russia have better relationship with its neighbors like Armenia, Kazakhstan etc. but not with E Euro? (last two questions added after editing)

PS: Genuinely curious about what you think and genuinely not trying to start anything. Thank you!
