Personally I think there are plenty of what-if scenarios involving Russia than could be made – and they wouldn't be all that far fetched. |
With regard to EU right wing parties, those of Sweden as well, even as we may describe them as anti-immigration, what we, those living in America are beginning to realize is that Russia is acting to destabilize the republic and this view is gaining appreciation when we look across the Atlantic at France, Germany, Norway, and Sweden. That EU right wing groups share an animus for the EU and they do agitate against their government policy that rocks the fundamental notion of a democracy. It could very well be a page from the Cold War novels of John le Carre (a Brit no doubt) to weaken the EU and NATO.
So, it may not be that the EU right wing is pro Russian but rather they are handled by Russian operatives.

I hope you will forgive me for saying this is really utter nonsense. |
I totally agree with IronDukes comment and I have already dropped subtle hints that threads like this are straying away from the game into politics. If you want to test reaction to paranoid conspiracy theories GO SOMEWHERE ELSE
....otherwise, if it continues it WILL end
