The United States isn’t the only place where you’ll find citizens concerned with a rapidly deteriorating geo-political landscape and the real possibility of another World War.
According to a report from Newsweek titled In Europe and Russia There’s Talk Of War, plenty of Russians feel the same way:
Recently, I grabbed a taxi in Moscow. When the driver asked me where I was from, I told him the United States. “I went there once,†he said, “to Chicago. I really liked it.â€
“But tell me something,†he added. “When are we going to war?â€
The question, put so starkly, so honestly, shocked me. “Well, I hope never,†I replied. “No one wants war.â€
At the office, I ask a Russian employee about the mood in his working class Moscow neighborhood. The old people are buying salt, matches and gretchka [buckwheat], he tells me—the time-worn refuge for Russians stocking up on essentials in case of war.
They've been through it in the not-so-distant past. They see the signs. Americans are too busy trying to catch Pokémon on their smartphones . . .
