In the Netherlands this topic cannot be mentioned in normal conversation, it gets ridiculed, it could never have happened. But when people from Russia talk about this, it is often with a bit of laughter about Western Europe and its idea of high culture.
This too seems like a very polarized discussion where we may never know to what extent it was true :)
