Why does it say "Made in USSR" in english?
You get the observant award of the day. I didn't even think of that and if I had I might have dismiss it as English being a "universal" language, which is actually a farce. English speaking is not in the majority even though it is spoken by people of many tongues as a second language. My UScentroism leanings is the reason, and I freely admit that.
But that of course does not answer your quite astute question. Why indeed ? Unless they intended it to be found by US ians knowing we are the most unilingual people on Earth. (if even that lol)
Thanks for refreshing my brain here.
