Dr Paine claims to be an expert on Russia, yet she apparently can't name a single Russian product?
Off the top of my head, there's Kaspersky, Yandex, Lada, Redmond, 12 Storeez, KamAZ trucks, Sukhoi aircraft, Uralmash mining equipment, Rosatom nuclear reactors, Kalashnikov rifles, Baltika beer, Russian Standard vodka, Gloria Jeans, Raketa watches, fibre lasers, medical isotopes, cobalt-60, Splat toothpaste, aerospace-grade titanium and Natura Siberica cosmetics.
And that's without even getting into the oil, gas, fertilisers, grain and metals and such like (or the Ikea glasses, which almost everyone in Europe seems to have in their kitchen).
