Valery Nikolaev and Larisa Ilyinikh

University professor, Oryol (Valery)

I am a patriot of my city and my country. Why? Of course there are many shortcomings and many problems in our country, but I probably don’t know a better country than Russia. 

Economist, Oryol (Larisa)

I too am a patriot of my city and country. Most likely because I was born here and my famly and all of my life is here, and because I like it here.
