I know one thing, after a nuclear exchange between Russia and the NATO nations.

I would much rather be a survivor in the United States, than one in Russia, over the following decades.

And I doubt that the area known formerly as Russia, would ever escape having been absorbed by China.

No kidding.

No one has figured out what day this is?

I know there would be scattered, isolated communities in Siberia east of the Urals that would survive, but they would most likely be on their own for a long, long time. Also, you would run into the Chi-Coms or what's left of them and/or the muzzies who live in the "stans" to the South. I remember talking about this with fellow "Twilight: 2000" role playing gamers. I think you're right, a U.S. survivor would be better off plus with two oceans and the Gulf of Mexico, trade would be easier with any surviving nations in South America.

The mere thought of Russian zombies is terrifying
