Russia and 2036 in the same sentence? Very ambitious…

Just a reminder that Putin was threatening to land a man on Moon’s pole by 2019

Very unlikely. IKI RAN (organisation for scientific space exploration) is underfunded as never before, and unlikely to order anything from Roscosmos (hardware manufacturer/launch operator), that constantly recieving orders from MoD, producing military hardware. It’s also lagging in production capabilities, so, it’s far from current priorities for the next decade at least.
No money for fundamental science. Even before, previous missions were often relying on foreign participation. There were no substantial interest from government, but now interest is literally negative.

Venus is the tutorial planet. The reason why Soviet union was spaming probes at Venus was that they had huge problems with sending probes anywhere else.Â

Just watch out for the lens cap!

Watch out for those rogue camera lens caps.

Maybe if the whole world starts cheering this on with wild applause, it would distract Putin’s miscreant ego enough to get him to focus on this and end the war in Ukraine.
And hey, I’d be psyched to see how well modern materials and engineering can survive on Venus. It should be a contest every decade: submit your craft, we’ll fly them all to Venus and release them at the same time. Clock starts when you touchdown. Longest transmission wins

The next Russian Venus mission always has the same time table as NASA crewed Mars missions.

Would be really awesome to see some new photos from the surface. Just imagine the things we could do if there were some way to get along.

What’s up with the Russians and Venus? I mean, yeah, it’s cool and all but there are other celestial bodies out there, guys.

Russia is going broke quick. Very doubtful space projections.

I hope Russia tries to send people to Venus. That’d be cool to watch; I don’t think they’d make it there, and I don’t think they’d survive.

Venera D has been on the books way way before 2022. Even if it did get into implementation – Russian planetary missions had an extremely poor track record (e.g. Phobos Grunt)

It’ll be fun watching this from our moon base.

I’m sure Putin intends to win all elections until he literally starts to rot but what a vision… what is he gonna do when no one wants oil?

Venus is a horrible idea, I think we all already learned that.
