I don't see that in the article anywhere (^F doctor ^F Petersburg). I also don't sense any specifically anti-Russian sentiment. I think the references to Russia are to contrast the lack of presence in SF despite a claim to have one, or the lack of corroboration for the claimed references. I imagine the tone of the article would be the same if it was France or South Africa or Malaysia.
