You mean like any topics related to a political election in your country? Russia has a vested interest in helping politicians get elected in other countries that help it's interests over those of others. Given the current internal state of Russia (even pre-invasion) it's unlikely that the interests of Russia even close to align with the interests of the people of those countries. Other nations do the exact same thing but we're talking specifically about Yandex here.
Personally I care more about the large scale political future of my country than I do about whatever random social issue Google is going after that has minimal impact on me.
