What would be the benefits of Russia absorbing the former USSR Republics into its territory while remaining capitalist? I feel like this would strengthen every country involved, especially the dirt-poor Central Asian republics like Turkmenistan.
Would you support such a move?

>benefits
one more perestroika nooo tovarich pls nooo

>moscow becoming 50% centra asian
Thanks obama

Capitalism is cancer. I would only support the Soviet Union being reestablished if it was actually made up of soviets instead of being a State Capitalist Authoritarian shithole.

>What would be the benefits of Russia absorbing the former USSR Republics into its territory while remaining capitalist?
A a few tens of thousands of people would get a longlasting errection, Russian media will celebrate this fact for a next year or two and MAYBE it'll give us some geopolitical advantage and additional soft power.

>implying it's not 50% central asian now

Leave the balts out of it, I need my daily meme dose.

They should absorb the Ukraine and Belarus. Leave the rest alone.

They could probably absorb all eleven other states but the baltics and those countries wouldn't be any worse or better for it
Just "safer" probably

yep, the shart is right.

USSR was never in any way socialist. It was state run capitalism at it's worse.

>Russia absorbing the former USSR Republics into its territory while remaining capitalist
No, thanks, in Russia we were already ready to split with Caucasus few years ago, and now you want us to annex Tajiks, Uzbeks and other guys whom Russians don't like very much? It's the sort of ideas that only Americans could offer.

Plus that project should have a flag like this. Not this Soviet thing.

Why live?

kazakhs are ugly

>>ywn call the hachapuri as your national dish
Do you like hachapuri btw?

who doesn't m8? shit is dank as fuk

Sounds like a recipe for forcing Russia to go full totalitarian to me.

You should try ossetian pies as well then. Pretty similar to hachapuri but can have different fillings within.

/ossetian propaganda posting mode on/

I'll check it out m8, not that familiar w southern russia cuisine but it looks gud.

No, smaller states can fend for themselves in this day and age if they are smart and the the russians would just flood their westslavs with even more asian workers while getting even more paranoid and aggresive because swallowing their bufferstates means that they must aquiere more bufferstates.

>I feel like this would strengthen every country involved

Nobody cares what you feel.
