Actually,
Ministry of Emergency of Russia is the best russian ministry.
They realy work in Russia as much as they can.
They have (like Emergency Kit) about 3-4 aircrafts ready to take off ASAP from Ramenskoe (near Moscow), loaded by aids, blankets, water desalters, tents,.... even 1 portable helicopter for rescue team.
Aircrafts are Ilyushin-76TD with red stripe:

These aircrafts will help to anyone who realy need it.
It is right, American government approved 3 IL-76TD from 4 offered. They refused Il-62 with rescue team.
One more from history:
Just statistics. When Gorbachev became Russian leader in 1985 there were ~20 000 000 communists in the USSR.
It was ~13% of all Russian people.
95% of russian communists became members just because
membership has such benefits like better salary, better
career, free vacation tickets, good health care for family
and of course free own apartments. They were so far from
communist ideology. Last one who realy believed to it was
Lenin, but he died in 1924. Others just played own games.
