Good job, Sveta, a very interesting video and walk around of your hometown mall. Your English is excellent and it shows in your narration. Rest up and look forward to future video😊👍🏻
And you wish you had their salary too? It's not what you make or what things costs that make how good your finances are. It is what you can buy with the salary you got and how much you can save after all necessary costs has been paid.
The Mall looked clean, smart and pleasant to wander around, not sure if the clothing would keep you warm with all that snow , must be the new 'Spring Collection' - Thanks for posting.
So interesting, actually yes, some brands thought leaving Russia would impact people, but no, there are more important things in life than some western brands , which by the way all of them outsource their production to China . They left the whole market to local or alternative brands which are thriving. Dumb move by these global brands . Cheers , loved your video !!!

I love watching Russian citizens compare food products to those in the US. News flash for all Russians, American food is no different than dog food, it’s all substance-like and GMO trash food. Russia at least has a law prohibiting GMO and substance-like foods from being sold in Russia. Also, shoes and clothing are made in Indonesia, China, etc., it’s no longer Made in USA.
Gmo food is awful. I have always had Russian friends here in Finland. We have so much unneeded russfobiac for no reason. I love watch ordinary russian life. We are not that different in persons, we have same issues with our lifes, only thing that can change lives is love, tolerance and respect ❤
There is a store here in Tallahassee called Lofty Pursuits…they have breakfast, lunch and early dinners …but lots of toys, games and puzzles…as well as all the latest …what’s it called?Like frisbee golf…they make their own ice cream…about 20 different flavors…they make their own candy on a table behind the counter that you can watch them making…but I stop in about once a week for breakfast…friendly people ..
Bravo et merci beaucoup Sveta ! Toujours agréable de voir quelque chose de beau, positif et intéressant sur la Russie ! Always good and fun to watch something nice, positive and interesting about Russia ! Всегда приятно и весело смотреть что-то хорошее, позитивное и интересное о России!

Daher is run by a lebanese businessman based in the United Arab Emirates. You are very thorough. LC Waikiki is not that widespread. It bought out a french brand and is based around Southwest Turkiye in the tourist areas like Bodrum. Lots of Russian go there for holidays . Nice mall actually.
Looks like the shopping mall is managing quite nicely without some western brands.... You still make shopping interesting. But I thought you were going to the USA?
I'm gonna miss these videos if you end up moving. I do think it is ironic that the mall doesn't feel any different than here in the U.S. Haven't traveled much and will go to Russia.

13:16 Crazy expensive ??? Here Norgen Vaz (our best icecream) cost $8 or it used to cost $8.00 (600RUB) AUSTRALIA dollars. It was so expensive they now stop selling it in my town. I think you can still buy it but my guess is it's probably $10 for a double cone icecream. 🍦🍦😋
9:12 I noticed that we can buy a high quality long t-shirt but the price is very high. My gf bought me a very nice Italian cotten shirt years ago. $300 Australia dollars. (18'000 RUB)
Thank you so much for another very informative video Lady Svetlana…The prices of clothing and food in Siberia are extremely low compared to what you will find in the USA…I would say 50% to sometimes 75 % cheaper so I would suggest that you renew your wardrobe in Russia before you come to the USA. Thank you again for all you do and have a wonderful week! 💐
You America haters always reference 'prices' in uncivilized Russia. Do you know what the average salary is in Russia??? HMMMM??? You are an orc dressed in an American flag - GROSS!!
One thing shoppers can do to make low quality clothing last longer, is to sew / restitch all the sewn seams, which will ensure they don't come apart after a few washes. I know for a fact that more inflation is coming, but it isn't just a "your country" thing, it's global and I'm convinced it's all by design. Take care dear lady. 🤗

Hi Svetlana, it’s lovely to see you again, I think the prices of clothing and footwear are fairly similar to the west, as always you have to pay extra for quality goods, the difference I have noticed is alcohol prices which tend to be less than in the UK, I would like to know if the cost of having a car is more expensive than before the sanctions and travelling around on public transport, my most annoying thing in this country is the prices of fuel for heating and fuel for my car, it looks like you and your friend may have got your daily steps for the day by walking around the shopping centre so very well done, looking forward to seeing you again ❤

I live in nyc and shop at H&M; not all merchandise is quality however, you could find some really nice pieces and custom jewelry; even real leather stylish booties and back in the day real leather blazers; the customers have to look 👀 and they will find; beautiful sweaters from $ 60 to $ 8 wow can’t wait until you live in USA 😊
After 15 years of being employed as a Mc donald worker and building maintenance. I walk out of the store over a 40 watt light bulb. Long story. Employer was a prick and a miser. He was selling the franchise to another chain. Well for months I been asking them to buy a 40 watt light bulb. Nope they did not. It got dangerous to work in the freezer area where we needed it. It was pitch dark inside the freezer. I simply refuse to go inside the dark freezer. Words were exchange and the threat of being fired . I just walk out .
You would love it in my next job after that. I became a Q/A weight and package inspector. This holding room I was in was at constant minus 28F below zero; 24/7. I went in there lasting about 15 mins on a frauk. Now that was cold.
It looks like what malls used to look like in the US. Amazon sucks! What I miss the most about malls is the social aspect and being able to meet lots of pretty girls... 😍😛
That is correct! Prices alone don't mean anything Svet the 'economist'! Wages have much to do with setting of prices in a region. Sanctions against Russia are still taking hold and will cause huge problems for the orcs in the months and years ahead. Serves them right since their 'sanctions' against a peaceful neighbor have killed over 50 thousand civilians in their homes, destroying heat/lights/water in the dead of winter! What neanderthals!
Hi thank you so much for sharing all this wonderful information and the beautiful country of Russia💐💐💐💐 congratulations wishing yous the very best in your travels and everything 😊 Migdalia 😊
I have only been on the airport in Surgut back in 1990 or 1991. My colleagues in Gubkinskij used to drive there in weekends . Quite a trip but likely worth it !
Very interesting. Quite expensive tbh especially considering income there. I'm curious about the cars on display there in the mall, there's so many lol. Was it always like that?
Actually there is an investigation going on in Poland because the Hong Kong enterprise that Reserved allegedly sold its Russian shopping infractructure happens to be its subsidiary underneath. So all these former Polish now rebranded brands/shops are still Polish. Good day.
I think the mall looks clean & organized from what we see ..the prices are high considering the average wages of Russians however they are high in Canada as well but slightly more in line with the earning power ...all in all ...these sanctions have not done what they intended ..it appears Russia has has been able to circumvent the restrictions ...and underneath it all the retailers are still there as you mention the store clerk indicating even if product is unseen they can get it ...money talks everything else walks!
Sanctions don't necessarily forbid exporting all Western consumer goods to Russia or operating stores in Russia. But many Western companies have voluntarily withdrawn from Russia anyway. Goods are imported through intermediate countries if not possible directly. Pretty much everything is now more expensive to Russians than before the wa... EXTRA SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION TURBO EDITION. So, you can get almost anything you need, but you will pay for it. And I'm sure the inflation is only going to get higher. PS. And one thing I don't understand and approve of is Westeners like you spewing the "whatabouthisms", which is a well known tactic in Russian propaganda. Canadian purchasing power is on a different planet compared to Russians. The average salary in Russia is like $500-$800, depending on who you ask. Average pension is under $200.
@@joojoojeejee6058 I appreciate your perspective, but I would like to clarify that my intention was not to engage in "whataboutism" or any form of propaganda. My comment was merely an observation based on the economic implications of sanctions on Russia and the challenges faced by its citizens. I acknowledge the economic hardships experienced by the average Russian citizen, which are indeed significant. My intention was to highlight the broader impact of sanctions on everyday people rather than diverting attention from the topic at hand. However, if my comment came across differently, I apologize for any misunderstanding
@@timothymanues2469 A lot of Putinism in your comment. What I'm saying is, not everything is related to sanctions! Some Western companies leaving Russia doesn't necessarily have anything to do with sanctions, but more to do with their own free will, involving a difficult/hostile business environment, difficult logistics and of course ethics and their reputation. Many companies left Russia immediately when the war started. They didn't HAVE TO, but they did it anyway. Big companies such as IKEA. For some reason Russians seem to think that everything is directly related to "sanctions". And usually they don't realize that private companies might have other reasons to leave besides just sanctions...
Nice report Svetlana, I know someone from Surgut, funny to see this city. The prices are extremely high for most items, while I am used to our high prices in Europe. I actually never go to large shopping centers anymore. I don't care about fashion myself and mainly buy outdoor clothing. When are you going to travel again? Good luck with your nice videos.
Here, Svetlana, enjoy a poem from my book. I know you and your sister love to read. 🤗 Battle The Beast The night came quicker than usual, as it caught me by surprise Before I found some shelter, the darkness dimmed my eyes My panicked heart was racing, my legs instinctively took flight I aimlessly ran in circles, in the horror of blackest night In the distance I could hear it, the sound of a terrible beast I could hear its claws scratching, I could see the flash of its teeth There was no way to outrun it, for it traveled on all fours So, faced with just one prospect, I turned and faced the noise The blade I held, had a faint sparkle illumined by distant stars The beast knew I would use it, as it stalked me from afar My wait drug on for an eternity, as I firmly stood my ground But soon it would be over, for I heard approaching sounds Throughout my life, I purposely planned, to never travel at night It was the only way to miss the beast and avoid a deadly fight Yet, life has a sense of justice, not willing to let me cheat those plans From facing the beast who stalks me, from facing what haunts a man A silhouette sprang out of the blackness, striking hard the first blow I vollied back with the tip of my blade, causing the beast to moan Collapsing together, mortally wounded, the dawn began to break I saw the beast that had attacked me, it was myself, in whom I faced Battle The Beast By William Cooper From the book, Coop's Corner Collection Inspirational Stories and Poems Check out the first poem, (Lisa Moo Moo Marie) turned into a country song.
Какой шедевр, как замечательно сложилась рифма, а главное смысл. Замечательно хотелось бы еще ваших авторских стихов. Спасибо, вы сделали наш вечер позитивным❤
Blonde got lost in a shopping mall, ha ha ha, that story never gets off all over the World. Hm yes, I did notice that the "quality" of the goods is not as it use to be, same as the food portions got smaller and carry same price.But You in Siberia, so to by a T-shirt is like "CRAZY" !!! do they have specialty stores for Siberia?like for northern climate? in Canada they have special brands that makes Northern stuff for cold place, but they make T-shirts too, and they are very well made and heavy, I still have some and they are more than 15 years old and still good, these stores are not only in Canada but sells only in the North. And it looks like the prices at the mall are about the same as in the USA. TH, and yes we do have stores that are just out of INSANE about the prices, but there not in every mall and cost of shopping in them is mind blowing.....I shop there only for Christmas. TH
I am very curious Svetlana and I hope that you reply. Since you consider Surgut, at a population of 400,000, a small town, how did you feel when you were at the University of Kansas (28,000 students) in Manhattan, Kansas (54,000 people)? Very tiny places in comparison to St. Petersburg (around 5 million people) where you feel comfortable. I live in Sioux City, Iowa, the hometown of Kirk Hinrich who played basketball at the University of Kansas from 1999 - 2003. Kirk’s uniform number #10 was retired by the U of K in 2009. Kirk was the first-round number 7 overall NBA draft pick in 2003 and was drafted by the Chicago Bulls.

Уважаемая Светлана, привет из Мексики! Не удивляйтесь, получив сообщение с другой стороны океана в реакции на трагедии в Крокус Сити Холле. Хотя жертвами являются мирные жители, они не перестали быть среди нас и в мирное время, поэтому, вне всякого сомнения, их память будет чтить как члены бессмертного полка. Разрешите пояснить, что я был знаком с историей веры и любви к жизни Садако Сасаки, а также с песней «Журавли», которая всегда присутствует в торжественных церемониях 9 мая. Не знал я, однако, что между одним и другим существует тесная связь. Ещё я посмотрел пару видеороликов о том, как вспоминают тех, кто слишком рано покинул этот мир из-за нападений на мирное население в ДНР. Как грустно думать обо всех этих плюшевых мишках, у которых больше нет хозяина, не говоря уже о невыразимой боли, которую перенесли столь многие семьи! Только теперь я совсем понял значение вездесущего символа бумажного журавля. Я также смотрел несколько лет назад советский фильм «Летят журавли» и, конечно, помню впечатляющий образ птиц, образующих символа «>» высоко среди облаков. Нам не посчастливиться наблюдать подобные природные явления в этих широтах, хотя недалеко отсюда расположены так называемые заповедники бабочек-монархов. С другой стороны, интересно знать, что существует древнее поверье, что воины, павшие в бою, возвращаются к жизни, превратившись в колибри. Очень жду следующего ролика Вашего канала. Всегда приятно писать по-русски, но я не хочу, чтобы это сообщение было длинным, ведь чем оно короче, тем меньше в нем будет грамматических ошибок. Не знаю, предстает ли уже природа в весеннем виде или зима затянулась, как это иногда бывает. Если это не так и вишневые деревья цветут, пожалуйста, дайте себе возможность на мгновение созерцать их. Говорят, что цветущая вишня оказывает почти магическое воздействие на дух благонамеренных людей. Это опыт, которого мне не удалось получить, потому что в этой прекрасной стране дружелюбных людей где есть почти всё, но снега и мистических вишневых деревьев очень мало. Надеюсь, что Ваши новые проекты успешно реализуются и, главное, под мирным небом! Примите мои наилучшие пожелания Вам и счастливчикам, которых Вы называете своими близкими! Ваш подписчик, Хорхе.
I doubt this would be any interset to you, but never buy Levis. They are garbage. I've worn Wrangler for 3 years straight doing professional logging, & they are still good. (I have 2 pairs)
Whether western brands are gone or not, it would be fair to say that younger Russian consumers still feel an afinity to western retailers and lifestyles - or putting it another way, they are unlikely to prefer Chinese retailers and lifestyles anytime soon.
Hell let's be honest if you buy many western brands you are buying Chinese manufactured goods .take Nike for example or stretchers.not made in the US anymore.
Grande Svetlana, video molto bello che dimostra che la Russia non ha bisogno di nessuno i negozi sono pieni di merci tu sei stupenda come sempre anche se non hai votato Putin, ho visto il video, TVB ❤❤
@@martinkasper197 Yes! Sadly many of her sisters in Ukraine have stringy hair, dirty faces, broken bloody nails from digging through the rubble for their babbushkas, their daughters and sons - their fathers and brothers are either gone fighting against Russian orcs or already killed or horribly wounded. Homes, villages, heat/light/water destroyed in the dead of winter - all because they and their elected leader cannot tolerate a wealthy, successful democracy at their border! Pathetic, horrible!!! Yes, visit Anna From Ukraine for the TRUTH! SLAVA!
Nicely presented Svetlana. In Australia most of the cheap clothes are made in China or Vietnam and Bangladesh. Cheap and nasty. I wonder where the cheap brands are coming from in Russia?
What is the average salary of a person who would shop in this mall? That might give me a better perspective on affordability for Russians. Maybe you have that covered in another video?

Serves them right since their 'sanctions' against a peaceful neighbor have killed over 50 thousand civilians in their homes, destroying heat/lights/water in the dead of winter! What neanderthals!
Hi Svetlana, how r u? V beautiful video. I like your video. From Pakistan 🇵🇰🌹
Wow, you still have snow?
Nice shopping with m
you Svetlana
Hello watching from the Philippines..Do u have tiktok account?Coz I saw your vids uploaded in there not sure if its your own account.
Can you tell me the name of this account? I’m pretty sure it’s not mine
Hi thank you so much for sharing all this wonderful information and the beautiful country of Russia💐💐💐💐 congratulations wishing yous the very best in your travels and everything 😊 Migdalia 😊
I have only been on the airport in Surgut back in 1990 or 1991. My colleagues in Gubkinskij used to drive there in weekends . Quite a trip but likely worth it !
Very interesting. Quite expensive tbh especially considering income there. I'm curious about the cars on display there in the mall, there's so many lol. Was it always like that?
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
ice cream looks nice and jesus those phone prices have fun with your friends and beautiful as always 😍😍
Huge shopping centre and in Siberia, unbelievable, thinking u should get that black top,spashiba ❤❤❤
What's unbelievable in that? Such huge malls are everywhere in every big city here.
Actually there is an investigation going on in Poland because the Hong Kong enterprise that Reserved allegedly sold its Russian shopping infractructure happens to be its subsidiary underneath. So all these former Polish now rebranded brands/shops are still Polish. Good day.
We finns are actually born brothers with russians. And some says russians are actually the finns, they only speak russian language.
And Stalin just wanted to visit his finnish brothers in 1939/40...🤓🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@martinkasper197 Stalin was the great man.
@@vilivonkin6243 Stalin was a butcher.
No, they are not. Russia was born out of the Kiev empire that was ruled by the Rurik dynasty from Sweden.
@@FredrikLimegård bullshit comment.
Small city Surgut with 400.000 people? OK. Peace & Love to everybody.
I think the mall looks clean & organized from what we see ..the prices are high considering the average wages of Russians however they are high in Canada as well but slightly more in line with the earning power ...all in all ...these sanctions have not done what they intended ..it appears Russia has has been able to circumvent the restrictions ...and underneath it all the retailers are still there as you mention the store clerk indicating even if product is unseen they can get it ...money talks everything else walks!
Sanctions don't necessarily forbid exporting all Western consumer goods to Russia or operating stores in Russia. But many Western companies have voluntarily withdrawn from Russia anyway. Goods are imported through intermediate countries if not possible directly. Pretty much everything is now more expensive to Russians than before the wa... EXTRA SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION TURBO EDITION. So, you can get almost anything you need, but you will pay for it. And I'm sure the inflation is only going to get higher. PS. And one thing I don't understand and approve of is Westeners like you spewing the "whatabouthisms", which is a well known tactic in Russian propaganda. Canadian purchasing power is on a different planet compared to Russians. The average salary in Russia is like $500-$800, depending on who you ask. Average pension is under $200.
@@joojoojeejee6058 I appreciate your perspective, but I would like to clarify that my intention was not to engage in "whataboutism" or any form of propaganda. My comment was merely an observation based on the economic implications of sanctions on Russia and the challenges faced by its citizens.
I acknowledge the economic hardships experienced by the average Russian citizen, which are indeed significant. My intention was to highlight the broader impact of sanctions on everyday people rather than diverting attention from the topic at hand. However, if my comment came across differently, I apologize for any misunderstanding
@@joojoojeejee6058a lot of copium in your comment.
@@timothymanues2469 A lot of Putinism in your comment.
What I'm saying is, not everything is related to sanctions! Some Western companies leaving Russia doesn't necessarily have anything to do with sanctions, but more to do with their own free will, involving a difficult/hostile business environment, difficult logistics and of course ethics and their reputation. Many companies left Russia immediately when the war started. They didn't HAVE TO, but they did it anyway. Big companies such as IKEA.
For some reason Russians seem to think that everything is directly related to "sanctions". And usually they don't realize that private companies might have other reasons to leave besides just sanctions...
Nice report Svetlana, I know someone from Surgut, funny to see this city. The prices are extremely high for most items, while I am used to our high prices in Europe. I actually never go to large shopping centers anymore. I don't care about fashion myself and mainly buy outdoor clothing. When are you going to travel again? Good luck with your nice videos.
Here, Svetlana, enjoy a poem from my book. I know you and your sister love to read. 🤗
Battle The Beast
The night came quicker than usual, as it caught me by surprise
Before I found some shelter, the darkness dimmed my eyes
My panicked heart was racing, my legs instinctively took flight
I aimlessly ran in circles, in the horror of blackest night
In the distance I could hear it, the sound of a terrible beast
I could hear its claws scratching, I could see the flash of its teeth
There was no way to outrun it, for it traveled on all fours
So, faced with just one prospect, I turned and faced the noise
The blade I held, had a faint sparkle illumined by distant stars
The beast knew I would use it, as it stalked me from afar
My wait drug on for an eternity, as I firmly stood my ground
But soon it would be over, for I heard approaching sounds
Throughout my life, I purposely planned, to never travel at night
It was the only way to miss the beast and avoid a deadly fight
Yet, life has a sense of justice, not willing to let me cheat those plans
From facing the beast who stalks me, from facing what haunts a man
A silhouette sprang out of the blackness, striking hard the first blow
I vollied back with the tip of my blade, causing the beast to moan
Collapsing together, mortally wounded, the dawn began to break
I saw the beast that had attacked me, it was myself, in whom I faced
Battle The Beast

Svetlana ❤ please go shopping to Victorias Secret or Ann Summers if they have those in Russia 😉😍😊
I wish you would go visit Bangkok…downtown, they have a mall called CENTRAL…six stories high with lots of escalators…even an APPLE store…
How they went with Stars Coffee instead of Czarbucks is a total fail....
why? do you think the coffee of Star Bucks tastes good?

Blonde got lost in a shopping mall, ha ha ha, that story never gets off all over the World. Hm yes, I did notice that the "quality" of the goods is not as it use to be, same as the food portions got smaller and carry same price.But You in Siberia, so to by a T-shirt is like "CRAZY" !!! do they have specialty stores for Siberia?like for northern climate? in Canada they have special brands that makes Northern stuff for cold place, but they make T-shirts too, and they are very well made and heavy, I still have some and they are more than 15 years old and still good, these stores are not only in Canada but sells only in the North. And it looks like the prices at the mall are about the same as in the USA. TH, and yes we do have stores that are just out of INSANE about the prices, but there not in every mall and cost of shopping in them is mind blowing.....I shop there only for Christmas. TH
Russia s/h renamed Starbucks as "Tsarbucks" and used a silhouette of Catherine the Great.
I am very curious Svetlana and I hope that you reply. Since you consider Surgut, at a population of 400,000, a small town, how did you feel when you were at the University of Kansas (28,000 students) in Manhattan, Kansas (54,000 people)? Very tiny places in comparison to St. Petersburg (around 5 million people) where you feel comfortable.
I live in Sioux City, Iowa, the hometown of Kirk Hinrich who played basketball at the University of Kansas from 1999 - 2003. Kirk’s uniform number #10 was retired by the U of K in 2009. Kirk was the first-round number 7 overall NBA draft pick in 2003 and was drafted by the Chicago Bulls.
Towns with less than a hundred thousand people in America have better stores, malls than Russia's population centers. And they have FLUSH TOILETS TOO!

Уважаемая Светлана, привет из Мексики!
Не удивляйтесь, получив сообщение с другой стороны океана в реакции на трагедии в Крокус Сити Холле. Хотя жертвами являются мирные жители, они не перестали быть среди нас и в мирное время, поэтому, вне всякого сомнения, их память будет чтить как члены бессмертного полка. Разрешите пояснить, что я был знаком с историей веры и любви к жизни Садако Сасаки, а также с песней «Журавли», которая всегда присутствует в торжественных церемониях 9 мая. Не знал я, однако, что между одним и другим существует тесная связь. Ещё я посмотрел пару видеороликов о том, как вспоминают тех, кто слишком рано покинул этот мир из-за нападений на мирное население в ДНР. Как грустно думать обо всех этих плюшевых мишках, у которых больше нет хозяина, не говоря уже о невыразимой боли, которую перенесли столь многие семьи! Только теперь я совсем понял значение вездесущего символа бумажного журавля. Я также смотрел несколько лет назад советский фильм «Летят журавли» и, конечно, помню впечатляющий образ птиц, образующих символа «>» высоко среди облаков. Нам не посчастливиться наблюдать подобные природные явления в этих широтах, хотя недалеко отсюда расположены так называемые заповедники бабочек-монархов. С другой стороны, интересно знать, что существует древнее поверье, что воины, павшие в бою, возвращаются к жизни, превратившись в колибри. Очень жду следующего ролика Вашего канала. Всегда приятно писать по-русски, но я не хочу, чтобы это сообщение было длинным, ведь чем оно короче, тем меньше в нем будет грамматических ошибок. Не знаю, предстает ли уже природа в весеннем виде или зима затянулась, как это иногда бывает. Если это не так и вишневые деревья цветут, пожалуйста, дайте себе возможность на мгновение созерцать их. Говорят, что цветущая вишня оказывает почти магическое воздействие на дух благонамеренных людей. Это опыт, которого мне не удалось получить, потому что в этой прекрасной стране дружелюбных людей где есть почти всё, но снега и мистических вишневых деревьев очень мало. Надеюсь, что Ваши новые проекты успешно реализуются и, главное, под мирным небом! Примите мои наилучшие пожелания Вам и счастливчикам, которых Вы называете своими близкими! Ваш подписчик, Хорхе.
I doubt this would be any interset to you, but never buy Levis.
They are garbage.
I've worn Wrangler for 3 years straight doing professional logging, & they are still good. (I have 2 pairs)
I agree from Colorado
Levi's were good up to the early 80's, then they went off-shore and turned into garbage
Whether western brands are gone or not, it would be fair to say that younger Russian consumers still feel an afinity to western retailers and lifestyles - or putting it another way, they are unlikely to prefer Chinese retailers and lifestyles anytime soon.
Hell let's be honest if you buy many western brands you are buying Chinese manufactured goods .take Nike for example or stretchers.not made in the US anymore.
Grazie.
Thank you so much!😊

Would I be correct in concluding that clothing companies in Russia are selling lower quality goods to try and keep prices low?
The quality doesn't change but prices are way higher now.
@natyrusa I only mentioned that because Svetlana kept mentioning the low quality clothing.
@@WiebeMusicClass well, but we shop in different stores. I prefer Love Republic and Ostin.
I can’t imagine after the oil shortage starts putting inflation down the markets
I am loving it !
Grande Svetlana, video molto bello che dimostra che la Russia non ha bisogno di nessuno i negozi sono pieni di merci tu sei stupenda come sempre anche se non hai votato Putin, ho visto il video, TVB ❤❤
She said “ men’s sector “ love it !!!!
Is it wrong to say like that? We literally say like that in Russian.
Bautiful nails! 😍which nailshap is that ? Square or squoval?
💅
Anna from Ukraine has more beautiful nails and a more important Message...🤔🤣🤣
@@martinkasper197 Yes! Sadly many of her sisters in Ukraine have stringy hair, dirty faces, broken bloody nails from digging through the rubble for their babbushkas, their daughters and sons - their fathers and brothers are either gone fighting against Russian orcs or already killed or horribly wounded. Homes, villages, heat/light/water destroyed in the dead of winter - all because they and their elected leader cannot tolerate a wealthy, successful democracy at their border! Pathetic, horrible!!!
Yes, visit Anna From Ukraine for the TRUTH! SLAVA!
Nicely presented Svetlana. In Australia most of the cheap clothes are made in China or Vietnam and Bangladesh. Cheap and nasty. I wonder where the cheap brands are coming from in Russia?
So many western brand garments are made in China. During the day they manufacture Levis and at night the Russian brand, same exact garment. lol
Love her beautiful hair😊
What is the average salary of a person who would shop in this mall? That might give me a better perspective on affordability for Russians. Maybe you have that covered in another video?
In Moscow, the average after taxes is like 800 dollar per month.
@@FredrikLimegård thanks!
@@WiebeMusicClass I'm from Chelyabinsk, not from Moscow, and I get 27-35K rubles per month, for example.
