Russian democracy is an oxymoron while the Tatars, Bashkiris, Chechens, Dagestanis, Buryats, Karelians, Kalmyks, Yakuts, Tuvans and 100+ more subjugated peoples are involuntarily jailed within Russia's prison of nations so Muscovy's 5 century old kleptocracy commodity theft business model can continue. The RDF's nod to federalism is too little too late because every non Russian people in the empire's Russkiy Mir white and orthodox supremacist uncodified version of a Jim Crow racial pecking order knows that the window of opportunity for secession provided by defeat and state collapse will open only briefly. Federalism without a new 1991 type parade of sovereignties won't happen.
