I read that as something you’re looking forward to.
Happy to be corrected.
- skinkestek 2y agoLate but it is not something I look forward to. I probably have more Russian friends and ex-colleagues than most people, although that doesn't prevent me from being extremely clear about the situation being caused by russia. I'd much rather take advantage of Russia stabilizing and becoming a major trade partner to Europe. That was my original motivation for trying to learn Russian 20-30 years ago. (Trying to understand where the misunderstanding come from and I am starting to wonder if I misuse the expression "take advantage of". I've always thought there was a difference between "taking advantage of <someone>" which I thought was always bad and "taking advantage of <something>" which I thought could be good or bad depending on the situation. If I have misunderstood, then apologies for the confusion.
