That seems petty. Russia’s historical contributions to WW2 should not be ignored because of current events.

FWIW, also on their side, the common Russian belief is that THEY defeated Nazi Germany. Given that 80% of German casualties were on the Eastern Front, I suppose they have a point

Without the Soviets, the best the Brits and the Yanks would have fought the war to a stalemate.

Russia could not have defeated the Nazis in the East without the massive American Lend-lease enterprises, factories and armaments.
