You can't very well expect Russia to enforce other countries' tax rules if you aid Russian companies and individuals to take their money beyond the reach of the Russian state.
Besides, it's not clear to me the Russians are any worse than the US. If I emmigrate to Switzerland (or wherever) and renounce my US citizenship, the US believes it has the right to take 40% of my assets and tax my Swiss income for the next ten years. That's gangster state BS.

That's gangster state BS. I was not aware of that, and given how crazy that sounds I looked it up, and it seems to no longer be true.[0] I still find it crazy that US citizens have to pay taxes when they live abroad.
