Residents of Greenland about Russia and Russians

We have already interviewed Turks, Dutch, citizens of Spain, India, Italy, Vietnam and Denmark. This time, My Planet asked the residents of Greenland to name three associations that come to mind when it comes to Russia and Russians. Apparently, due to the fact that in the capital (the city of Nuuk) at the time of the interview it was -16 ° C, 80% of the respondents shouted “vodka” first of all. But nevertheless, in addition to vodka, there were still a lot of other interesting and unexpected statements. Read the answers in the photo captions.
