I would suggest you Czech Republic. Russians are accepted here as minority and a lot of them is living here. Also our language is Slavic so very similar to Russian. We have democracy and I am not aware of any censorship. We are atheists and we are not homophobic. Also we have very good infrastructure and it is cheap to live here. And Prague is a beautiful city.

Another vote for Czech Republic (well, Prague) - great for living and running a small/private business, though kind of bad for getting funding, going public or getting the best employees.

> We are atheists Seriously? Is that a good reason to move somewhere? What difference does it make? It's as irrelevant to moving as is the ethnicity of the country.

JetBrains (of IntelliJ fame) is a prominent software firm founded by Russians in Prague. I'm sure that Russians in the tech community are at least semi-aware of the Czech Republic being a good place to move to. If the Czechs are smart, they'll use the current turmoil as a chance to brain drain the Russians. There are a lot of good technical people in Russia who unfortunately don't have a political and economic environment that would enable them to flourish. There was probably a lot of hope after the USSR collapsed that things would get better, but if I were in Russia, I would be losing hope at this point for any significantly positive reform in the foreseeable future.

Strange, I'd say it's the contrary, people in .cz generally dislike hearing Russian, especially in Prague, because here you can see Russians everywhere, tourists or residents. I also don't remember anyone ever claiming that CR has a good infrastructure (when it comes to roads). As for homophobia and Prague being beautiful...well, that's arguable.
