Hinduism in Russia

According to a research paper by a Russian researcher on the history of the world, it was Russia that gave the Vedas, Vimanas, philosophy, and sciences to the world, not India. The author of the paper suggests that the Vedas were composed in the Arctic, and Shiva and his son Ganesha traveled through the western world before arriving at the Arctic to compose the Rig Veda. They then returned to India through Russia. Additionally, the author claims that many Hindu deities and cities are found in Russia and that Lake Baikal is Vaikanasa Theertha.
