“Russia is the only pro-christian nation left in the world?”

I don’t think the Russian government gives a rat’s butt about Christianity. It is more likely that the Russians are simply supporting a long-term client state and trying to protect an important Mediterranean military base. If Assad is ousted, the Russian ability to project power will be curtailed. It is only coincidence that your interests line up. Are you willing to consider that you may be projecting your pro-Syrian Christian view with Russian motivations?
