    For me it was the same feeling then I first visited Russia 12 years ago. It was like stepping back in time 50 years and I'm from Baltic states which regained independence from Russia only in 1991

    What would Russian like to see in North Korea? To refresh their memory of Soviet era and be prepared going back to old “golden” days?
