Russia is still a Jew owned shithole. Let's talk about car industry. In USSR all the cars were made only thanks to Ford and Fiat, later Renault, rebranded as Russian. In modern Russia, their cars are Chinese rebranded as Russian.
Obviously talented Russian people are not allowed to start businesses based on manufacturing. All the businesses are Jew owned and are based on trading or services. There are no famous Russian brands made by Russians that are popular in the Western countries.
Russians have no power in their own country. Just remember that before the 1917 Jewish revolution, Russia was equally proficient in their brands as any other Western countries.
Russian cousine was world famous. There are none now.
I can go on, but you get the point.
And there are original ladas, and UAZs and others. The lada niva is a complete original from the soviet era. Most ladas today *are* originals. A good deal of brands started as a rebadge because of how successful the designs of Ford and Fiat were, they were brilliant cars. Over time, and particularly as the reliability of those 2 brands has been less favorable than they once were, manufacturers started doing different things and started copying japanese manufacturers in particular.
Other people cornered the market before Russia could have ever even hoped to do so. Fiat had pretty much unbeatable cars in Europe at the time and their only real competition was VW. There was a better opportunity to design something reliable by collaborating with Fiat on an existing design and modifying it to suit the needs of eastern europe because the designs worked and the mechanics were sound.
