Russia can get many friends around the world, but does not have such a desire

50
We often speak and write that after the collapse of the USSR, the majority left many relatives, acquaintances, and friends outside the borders of new states. We communicate, we remember, we regret. But the situation does not change and, probably, will never change. However, never say never. Maybe one day...





But this will obviously happen after most of us leave. And who will stay? Our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren will stay. Well and further, depending on how much this “some day” will last. I do not know about you, but I often have a simple question in my head: will they want to change the situation?

Judging by how relations are formed between some former Soviet republics and Russia, how not only political, economic and other relations between our countries change, but relations between ordinary people, this will never happen ...

But at the same time, I observe a completely different situation among countries that were classical colonies of English-speaking countries. And among the countries that the Anglo-Saxons simply destroyed during various wars and conflicts. Destroyed in the truest sense of the word. And the most barbaric ways.

Yes, for some time these countries were ardent enemies of the Anglo-Saxons. But what happened next? During the life of the generation that destroyed? And in most cases a strange thing happened. Relations for some reason were getting better. Moreover, countries voluntarily went as allies to their enemies. Even the atomic bombing, which claimed hundreds of thousands of Japanese lives, does not prevent Japan from treating the US well and catching every word from Trump.

I reminded about Japan just like that. As the most telling example of the correct work with the losers. But there are still German cities broken apart, there are former Soviet republics of the Baltic States, there is a Poland loyal to the beginning of World War II. The list can be continued, but the essence will not change.

We often speak and write about the fact that from somewhere in our country a lot of "obvious US agents" have appeared, especially in the economy. We are surprised that, among the Russians, clearly pro-American liberals "started up". You read or watch the performance of such a Russian and you understand that here it is, the enemy. Not there, in the USA, but here, in Russia. But he is Russian, Soviet ... A person to whom the state has given free education. The person whom the state provided with housing. Yes, and he reached some heights in his business in this state. Why is that?

On the one hand, it is impossible to understand. This simply can not be, but in reality there is! And if you look wider? If you dig deeper? Well, I do not believe that the scrapping of human consciousness is happening just like that. He was a patriot of the USSR, a patriot of Russia, and suddenly he was reborn as a frantic enemy of his own state.

And you know how it seems to me, I found the answer to this question. And a hint of this answer is voiced at the very beginning of the article. Most of the “reincarnates” have fairly strong ties in the West. Not political, not ideological. Not. Just friendly. And there are these links during training in various Western universities, schools, courses ...

It is clear that young or not so people during the period of study come together. This is not forbidden and will not stop. Nature. It is clear that there are relationships that often persist for many years. It is clear that classmates, if necessary, will help a former classmate, classmate to start a new business or organize a new movement. Just a friend. Oh, it’s not for nothing that our institute was called "friendship of nations". But this is in Soviet times ...

So what is the secret of the Anglo-Saxons? Why even today, communicating with the British, there is a certain disregard for the world from their side? Not paying attention? The British even treat Americans not as equals. I'm not talking about the Australians. There generally preserved the attitude of the "times of the first settlers sent to Australia". And while the parents from these countries are happy to send their offspring to study in English colleges and universities.

Here it is, the answer! The "national cadre", trained in the traditions of the Anglo-Saxons and having support among the English-speaking elite not only in their own country, but also abroad, quickly stands out from the gray mass of compatriots. He occupies leading positions in economics, politics, culture ... And not only occupies, but also "promotes his own".

Remember all these "university ties" that are required at alumni meetings. Like a chevron on the sleeve of a soldier. The sign of belonging to a particular clan. And it is absolutely not important in what year you studied "together". This is a clan of university or college graduates.

Exactly the same situation with us. Not the Russians, and the Soviet. Our education was not inferior to Western. More precisely: we were "equally careless" in some areas. Somewhere we are better, somewhere they. Often I see in the comments to my articles dialogues about the place of service or study. Part or university and years ...

But then, most recently, we carried out an education reform. And what happened? Are there fans of what today is called education in Russia? Are there supporters of this great exam? Someone from the teachers of Russian universities can now say that today students are more literate and more prepared than in previous years? Or are we today at all international venues where students and students compete, among the leaders? I don’t want to remember about the championship of Soviet students ...

Everyone acknowledges that the existing education system is bad. Everyone talks about this from the highest tribunes. And the USE exists! And so far no one is going to cancel it. Education for the people! The people must necessarily know what color the dress was on the first ball at Natasha Rostova ... This is the most important of Tolstoy's novel.

Where do the children of our elites study? What universities do they graduate from? "Children" of any provincial governor is trained in local uni? I'm talking about the children of the oligarchs generally keep quiet. So what is next? Next will be what I described above ...

But back to our sheep. To what I started. Today we have to think about restoring order in our new "communal". We must think how our descendants unite. Just think for some reason, our government doesn’t really want to. What for? We are so well fed. Like in that famous song. “First of all, airplanes, but what about girls? And then girls ...”

Only then it is necessary to create now. And create us! To make it come.

Think it's hard? Not at all. Even in rubles, dollars, euros, tugriks and other dongs it will not cost us anything! On the contrary, we have the opportunity to earn and create the future. Already today.

Believe me, how many people abroad, not only in the former Soviet republics, would be happy to teach their children in our schools and universities? Not even tens, hundreds of thousands. Do they have such an opportunity? Alas. Not! A boy or girl from Uzbek, Moldavian, French, Peruvian, or any other village can finish a Russian school? And boys and girls Russian university?

Dear, we live in the age of universal computerization. In the age of the Internet. Look around. Children with disabilities today using these devices are taught in normal schools. They do not live as disabled, but as simple children. Probably special, but children ... The system exists and works!

And why this system can not be used to teach foreigners? Let even on a paid basis. People agree to pay for a good and promising education for their children. Where are the "e-schools" in Russia? Where are the "electronic" universities?

Well, remember the very recent resentment in our country and in Ukraine about the new Ukrainian law on education. Outage We sat, dabbed and parted. All condemned - and what? And nothing. The law will work. Hungarians, Romanians and Poles for their compatriots "punch" learning in their own languages. Russia is not! So give people the opportunity to teach children remotely. Give people the opportunity to receive Russian certificates and diplomas. Give the opportunity not to become a "crest" in Russia.

Honestly, sometimes you look at how simple problems, the solution of which is not worth a damn, turn into a “political opposition”, into an “ideological rift”, into “the work of anti-Russian forces”, and it becomes sad. Yes, let them turn and work. In the end, they pay money for it. But why are we chewing snot? Why don't we want to work?

The Russian language is forgotten in the world! .. Our schoolchildren are no longer the best schoolchildren! .. "Brain outflow to the West"! .. How many things, and ... Dear gentlemen and comrades, it’s enough to feed people with tales of the West’s strength and our weakness. Stop screaming at all angles about the impossibility of effectively resisting, because ... their economy is stronger. Raise need to bum out of easy chairs, throw your orders and circulars in the trash and out of the high offices. To the people go out and ask. Not to ask people for failure to comply with your instructions, but for people ... And, I am sure, you will hear many useful suggestions. Great set!

        After the collapse of the USSR, no matter how it was, but we were beaten by a strong power. The West pushed Russia into the abyss, Youth and not only young people looked to the West as a strong and prosperous. And now, this nonsense has not completely disappeared. Even provided that modern Russian education does not surpass Soviet, but it surpasses Western. In the west, they continue to live by the inertia of the popularity of brands.

          Who needs Russian education? More precisely, its absence - ask young people about student packages, about how you can really get a diploma without knowing where the dean’s office is. But this is not so bad - a good student is studying himself, but what about the recognition of a diploma? Who needs our diploma without confirmation in France or the USA? Oxford and Harvard diplomas are another matter; they are recognized in other countries. That's where the root of evil is - they defended themselves about our diplomas, but we do not.

        The fact of the matter is that now it is extremely difficult to learn a child normally! Who will invest money in training according to the current creepy textbooks, in teaching completely frightened and not very competent teachers who write a plan for sixty (!!!) pages instead of raising their level, in training among violent classmates who do what they want because they have “rights of the child” and mother-in-law parents who can call the teacher at 3 a.m. without hesitation?
        At the same time, our tutors work for Australia, Ukraine, and European countries. Individually. And they give good quality.

        I allow myself to disagree with you. Who is to blame is important, for the reason that in the future not to make mistakes. Work with youth, but then it is necessary to completely change the education system. About three or four years ago, I spoke with the class teacher of my son. So she explained to me that today she is obliged to give only superficial knowledge, and she does not have the right to deeply study a particular subject or give any assessment of events. If a child is interested in something, he should study it on his own, or hire a tutor.

            I do not mind, I am for change, but this will require, I think, 15 years to completely change the education system. It is necessary to create a new concept of education, it is necessary to reorganize the learning process for the teacher, it will be necessary to retrain the teaching staff through continuing education courses, etc. All this takes time and money. Unfortunately, we have neither one nor the other. from here it turns out that it is necessary to change, so that the funds and the state tax policy are allocated and most importantly allocated for changes in the education system. And will the state do this? And without changes, where to get the finances? Therefore, at present, changes do not have to wait. We need another way to change. The question is what?

    USSR ... Who did not forget how Khrushchev "closed" Stalin in history? Is it not here that the growth of people's distrust of power lies, because everyone knew perfectly well that power was lying, and since it was lying in this, it would be lying in another. By the way, the “remodelers” worked on this to convince the people to bow to the west. And what is Russia now? The product of "perestroika" with disordered brains and with the feeling of a lover abandoned by the West ...

    Americans are raising demands in all sectors. This applies in particular to maritime transport and air services. The requirements for cargo transportation and the technical condition of ships are being tightened. And they work for the future. Enter the deadlines. From 5 years. Foreign companies have to spend millions to install new equipment, especially in the field of environmental protection.
    Question. Why spend millions? And you will not spend the arrival, the entrance to the US harbor will be prohibited. Can we set the same requirements. We can. But no one will come to us. And in the United States come and continue to pay huge sums for the modernization of ships. The reason is that the USA is the richest country in the world and the volume of trade operations is huge.
    In India, every person who opened his own business at home and achieved some kind of success in business, opens his office in GB, and it is in London. But what about the sepoy uprising in India. Yes, like that.
    If the country is rich, the wealthy people at the borders of this state will be the turn of those who want to live or trade in it. They will tell me that in the USA a lot of people live on a welfare. Yes it is. But many of these people so want to live. They did not achieve anything in their country and came to the USA for freebies. It was their choice.

    "... And where are the children of our elites where they study? What universities do they graduate from? ..." is a very interesting question. Due to the difficult relationship with the West, our elite has decided to educate their children. These are cadet corps in each region.
    "... Ideally, the cadet corps of a closed type should be in every region. The creation of such a" center "of cadet education in the subjects entails a fairly large number of tasks: interaction in the format of public-private partnerships, participation of regional authorities and business, law enforcement agencies" , - said the Minister (Olga Vasilyeva) ... "
    To remove all doubts about the availability of training in these cadet corps of all comers, I will give one more quote.
    "...- The cadet corps are full-fledged institutions, therefore they require appropriate funding. It is much higher than the financing of secondary schools. On the one hand, this gives us the right to demand better results from the leadership, on the other, it sets us the task of clearly understanding what kind of children come here. We must understand that students of the cadet corps are human capital that needs to be treated with care. The results that we see with the example of the Perm Cadet Corps indicate that financial investments are justified, ”said Maxim Reshetnikov .. . "

    It is impossible to overestimate the role of education, but nevertheless, in my opinion, the reason that subjugated and annihilated peoples gravitate towards their yesterday's victorious enemies lies in the deep tendency of human nature to focus on the strong. People see and feel the power - economic, military, financial and cultural. It’s even a dumb American quasi-culture, but it’s powerful, agree. Archpower! Especially by the degree of influence on fragile souls. Yes, and the stronger too ... And here the question of the elite of the people just arises. It is she who is responsible for where ordinary people will look. Even if you don’t have the strength, you don’t have the means, you don’t have enough strength to resist, and you seem to have lost, but if the elite has the dignity, if, in spite of everything, it prefers its own — education, culture, language, traditions, religion (!) —That is ordinary people will look at her. I am silent that the elite influences the media, which form the national guidelines.
    In any collective, a kind of Vasya the bully appears who knows nothing, but smokes, swears, spits, dares and can give in the face. It is terrible, but girls will look at just such a Vasya, boys with glasses will be afraid of him. This is the nature of man, unfortunately. And if he also has imported clothes ... And only if one bespectacled man doesn’t sneak and fight back, even if they beat him, he will have “authority” and some part of the team will already look at him.
    You just need to have dignity, a banal national dignity. When you, looking at an Englishman, respectfully but firmly say: “You have a rich culture, but it is alien and incomprehensible to me.” When you do not give your son to study in Cambridge, even for free, because you consider this a personal insult to yourself and your ancestors.
    For me personally it is incredibly insulting today that a huge number of Ukrainian children are going to study in Poland. To Poland, Karl! Today, most compatriots will be honored for happiness so that their children study in Poland. Not at Harvard or the Sorbonne even, but in Poland! I personally perceive this as a personal insult.

    Moreover, countries voluntarily went into allies to their enemies. Even the atomic bombing, which claimed hundreds of thousands of Japanese lives, does not prevent Japan from treating the United States perfectly and catching every word from Trump's mouth.
    About Japan, I just recalled. As the most indicative example of the correct work with the vanquished.

    What does it have to do with it correct work with the vanquished? After WWII, Japan found itself in a situation of a lion with its teeth and claws torn out, which was surrounded by its victims yesterday (which, by the way, still have not forgotten anything). In this situation, Japan had no choice but to lie completely under the United States. And the excellent US-Japanese relations eventually turned into a Japanese blow to the American auto industry. In the 80s, by the way, a Japanese businessman vied with the Russian bear for the place of "enemy No. 1" in mass culture. smile

    Some kind of speech from the rally, a set of populist slogans.
    According to the Ministry of Education, now about 300 thousand foreigners study in Russia ... today Russia is among the ten countries with the largest number of foreign students. Rector of RUDN University notes that a number of programs are being implemented at the state level that are designed to significantly improve these indicators in the near future.

    Most of the foreign applicants (79,2%) enter Russian universities from the countries of the former USSR: Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Belarus, and so on.

    The fact that Indians, Pakistanis and other Syrians do not study at Russian universities is only partly to blame for Russia.
    Firstly, they allowed Commerce, as a result, they lifted up prices for student tuition; secondly - they let the nationalists / "Russia for the Russians, well ... - got" healthy competition for jobs "... for example, a Gnesinka graduate with a Tajik guest worker for a cool super-profitable janitor's place ...
    And in the third - they lost the "hybrid ...", abandoning state ideology and aggressive propaganda!
    ------------------------------------
    Incidentally: the propaganda of Christianity in its Western Catholic variant has always (!!!) been aggressive and inventive; missionary work is a skate of Catholicism; but Orthodoxy was far behind - freedom of will and religion!

        It can be seen from all that the theme of many touched the living. And the thing is that our rulers at all times ruled Russia, and looked into the mouth of the British, Germans, French and other Americans. Even the most, most Orthodox communists. They told us about the decaying West and tried to block it from us, and they went there with pleasure. Now they are talking about double standards, and we had triple standards. And the West was happy to receive our fugitives. And it did not begin with Herzen, but much earlier. And read from Zadornov what his father said about the dissidents. AND! All the same you will not tell!

    Maybe everything is a little easier? For example, the fact that today in power in Russia there are those who profess Western values ​​such as, "England does not have permanent allies, but has permanent interests"? As you know, as soon as money arises between friends, friendship disappears. Someone still doubts that Syria should not be a convenient transport corridor for Arab gas to Europe and therefore a competitor to Gazprom, who would have thought about Assad’s fate there?

    Friendship is valuable equality! And with the conquered peoples - it is somehow called differently. And for all that, we don’t like to submit. Yes, and other nations did not painfully oppress. The Balts and Poles want to put us on a par with Hitler. Both those and other invaders! I was in Lithuania in 1967. So we the invaders were very envious of the occupied. And then he was in Lviv and in Prague with Budapest. Ukraine lived no worse than Czechoslovakia and better than Hungary. They have reason to think what they have lost and when they will recover again.

    Nonsense. In the same Japan, the US occupation forces are still located, and the loyalty of Japan to the USA is not friendship, it is the loyalty of a slave to its master .... I understand your nostalgia for the USSR, but after the events in: Kandapoga, Osh, Hatkovo, Baku, Alma- Ata and other cities, the past cannot be returned ... And to all Russophobes I want to convey my musical greetings with the song, “Hobble quietly ''

    Of course, of course .... Yes, because there are no friends in geopolitics - there are geopolitical benefits! All these vows "for a century" and kisses turned into a spit in our country, goodbye to debts or war in general, thousands of examples ..... Because, as in that saying - "Such friends for the reproductive organ, and to the museum!"

    Holy naivety. In such a view of man lies the whole lice of the approach. I wanted to write a lot, but I realized that I would do something that was mistaken for a panacea.
    From my point of view, the vector of integration into society is set only once in a lifetime and in one place. In family. And the view of the family solely depends on the system of ownership in society. That is, relations to property.
    Brief conclusion. Property is concentrated by society - we have a cohesive society with the maximum coincidence of personality vectors. Property is fragmented - society is also fragmented. And NEVER will rally him for the long term.
    So don’t bother. No education will change the state of society. As a like-minded person. Always ownership will divide it into an easily manageable crowd. And the most interesting, illiterate. A crowd of posers and overshot eyes.

    Those people who paid tuition paid for themselves received free education, academic degrees. But who is to blame for
    many scientists left Russia in the 90s. These scientists had no choice, capitalism is behind the hill, and here is capitalism.
    laboratories offered, and here vouchers. Education can give a chance to talented people, but this is one in ten thousand,
    and the rest are content with broadening their horizons. The Russian Academy of Sciences mainly consists of humanities. But what they make their
    knowledge.? On the subjunctive story. I read the professor’s opening, where he writes, “If there hadn’t been a revolution, now America would have envied us.” The peasant, selling pork in the market, is crying. Like why did I sell it yesterday, today the prices
    have become higher.

      Of these “ifs,” you can stack the mountain above the clouds. laughing And the professor is either a stupid person or paid, and most likely both.

    But then, more recently, we carried out a reform of education. And what happened? Are there lovers of what education is called in Russia today? Are there any supporters of this great exam? Some of the teachers of Russian universities can now say that today students are more literate and prepared than in previous years? Or are we today at all international venues where pupils and students compete, among the leaders?
    And here I do not agree with the author and at international sites our students are really among the leaders. And the USE is improving, but he did the most important thing - he removed corruption, which flourished in the Soviet years when he entered the institutes, and made it possible for talented students from the provinces to enter universities. The author says that he was tired when everyone scolds, but what does he do? It is impossible to forbid students to study in foreign universities, it is important to create conditions for their work at home and I assure you that if they are interested and they see the opportunity to apply their knowledge, they remain to work in Russia.

    Only the people, most likely, will punish: abolish the colonial Constitution and replay everything starting from 1993. This is where we have to start.
