Good question. A possible indicator might be to see how their athletes perform in Beijing. Lackluster performances might suggest lack of enthusiasm for this resurgence of Russian Imperialism.

Top athletes will always perform their best regardless of geopolitics, especially at a venue like to Olympics.
