Hasn't the Russian government been instrumental in supporting a variety of right-wing governments in other countries (most famously, but not limited to, the United States)? Not to mention the Soviet Union hasn't existed for forever already. I'm surprised the Russian government is still seen as "left".
Then again this might involve weird multidimensional political opinion cleavages that exist particularly at the international level.
Jooz*ahem* Cultural Marxists. This despite the fact these same folks would otherwise be the first to say Russia is not Latin/Western/civilized, that it is religiously lukewarm, has a big Muslim minority, and abortion rates through the roof, and that even if it was as they saw it, it'd be the kind of Christian they consider badwrong.AFAIK in Russia itself it's more in favour of right-wing movements and against left-wing ones.
That would serve as a common link between those people who oppose the US/the West for capitalistic western imperialism (and thus would be considered "left-wing") and those people who oppose western liberalism (is this term meaningfully correct here?) for being too deferential to foreigners and foreign cultures (so, in other words, people who espouse cultural/traditional purity and hold anti-immigrant sentiment, and thus would be considered "right-wing").
