I've only been to Hungary(of the east european countries) and you don't see anyone hating Americans there.
I think East European countries have more hate for Russia then because it's not like they had a choice or something. They had to join the USSR... Well except Yugoslavia(doesn't exist anymore today) because they were freed by Tito and not by the Russians, but Tito was a communist as well(although he hated Stalin) so it doesn't really matter.

Well mostly. There are some people like Hunter who are too young to remember how bad things were then and are drawn to the general "glory" that the USSR had as a super power.
It's why countries like the Ukraine and Georgia can't get into the EU soon enough. They see it as the only way to save themselves from Russia again.

You know absolutly nothing about me or my familys life during and after the fall of the Soviet Union, so please dont make snap judgments like that ok?  The truth is that yes we did have a great life during the soviet era, but we wherent the only ones. Everybody who managed to fit in had a great one. bealieve it or not many things where far better during that time then what they are today.
Yes I might be a bit biased because of my family situation towards russia, but Im certain that no matter what, I would rather be part of a new eastern european economic union then being part of the UE, or its US mimicking rules/habbits/culture. I dont want to be part of that general stupidity and ignorance that consumes the western counties, and Im glad that I was raised as I was.
Why do you remember so well how terrible was the USSR KASZ ??? Seriously? Did you live here or all that you have heard was bull**** propaganda? You do know that all the horror stories where only a small part of the entire entity that was the Soviet Union, and most people some way or another actually had a decent and quality life. What was it major fault? That it tried to brainwash people? What country doesnt tries that till this day? Or that it killed innocent people for no reason? Well hello there second gulf war So no, the truth is that its easy to blame the soviet union for every evil act ever made, but people forget that except those few whom actually suffered, there are millions whom actually had a great, eventfull life. I for one would be able to do anything for another similar, and better union, and I do hope that one day it will happen, and the world will see the true face of the eastern european countries 
For everybody whom is on the Russian/eastern bashing side, please, I dare you to come and spend a couple of weeks/months/years here, in Romania, Bulgaria, Russia, Ukraine or anywhere else, and I can guarantee that all that you will find is a far more friendlier world, rich culture, where things like happines and freedom may actually be more than a flat and a car, for which youl pay bills for years to come

Yeah, that's why the governments on the borders of russia are all so happy to go back... I'm sure if I came to the Ukraine they'd be real happy about going back to russia. I mean who isn't a fan of man made famine?
I'll put it this way. Part of my family is Ukranian by way of Armenia. Makes me dislike genocidal acts a bit and justifications for such acts.
Also... your like... 19 how would you remember anything from then? What fond memories when you were like.... 1?

Of course... Im not even 20, thank you, but I do have a family you know I think just because of that alone I might be a biot more in touch with the eastern reality then you are
Also, wasnt Ukraine the country where 60% of the voters where anti Nato, and only 20% where pro-nato... I dunno, maybe its just me or the majority of them are more Russian oriented rather then craving for the West.
You have absolutly no knowledge of nobodys background, you have no idea whats going on in this world, and all that you have for yourself are a couple of net articles and the fact that somehow you are armenian... dont get me wrong, but I liove here, I travel to Ukraine, Bulgaria, Moldavia and Russia every half year, and I can see whats going on with my own eyes. Dont dislike me if you "truth" is not the same as mine
