Russia Trolls The West With Creepily Cooked “Welcome To Russia” Ad

Russia has launched a controversial and cooked ad campaign, “Time to move to Russia,” that is seemingly taking a jab at the recent sanctions imposed by the west.

The Russian Embassy in Spain shared the ad via Twitter, and it is obviously targeted at the West because the voice-over is in English but with a Russian accent – think the villain in a Bruce Willis film.

The clip features clips of Russia from the city to the country, with the narrator continuing to point out all the positives of the country.

Such positives include, “cheap gas, beautiful women, no cancel culture, traditional values and vodka!”

Beautiful Women is narrated while two girls are running through a field – which is a particularly creepy choice.

Naturally, there’s no mention of the war between Russia and Ukraine.

It’s probably worth noting that Russia’s traditional values have led to Russia decriminalising domestic violence that does not cause serious injury in 2017.

Unsurprisingly the ad is already being trolled, with people creating their own more realistic, “Move to Russia” ads on social media.

The reactions to the ad on the internet has also been strong.

 

Russia always knows how to get the rest of the world talking.
