Some of us look hopefully at a resurgence of the Orthodox Faith in Russia as part of the promise Our Lady has made to convert Russia, yet Russia is dying. No consecration of Russia has happened yet, but there are signs and expectations. What seems to be the case is that no one but Our Lady can save her.

British propaganda.
The factuality of this report is born out by an associate of mine who went over to Moscow with significant amounts of capital to invest locally, he was robbed and feared for his life, so he went home. It's not an isolated case.
The fact of the matter is that thanks to almost a Century of Socialism, Russia is in a deplorable state. It has all of the worst ills of Western states with few of the benefits: low birthrate, short life-expectancy, high rates of suicide based on familial disintegration and divorce. Even Putin knows this, which is why he's been trying to re-energize the Orthodox Church, God Bless him.
