First, U.S.-Russia trade flows in goods are small, only about $3.5 billion in 2024 and $36 billion in 2021. In comparison, total trade in goods between Canada and the United States reached $762 billion in 2024 Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid

And you are ABSOLUTELY INCORRECT about Stoli.
It is made in Latvia -- and only Latvia -- When you get ONE so obvious thing SO SO wrong.... it leads everyone to believe that you are wrong about everything you post.

All Stoli imported into the US is from Latvia.
You don't want to get into a pissing match with someone who knows alcohol inside out Originally Posted by Flair4Drama
