Yes, particularly on foreign issues where we like to take a bit of a sanctimonious view towards Russia, throughout the countries modern history really we've tried to hold them to higher standards than the West have maintained themselves. The too simplistic view of Russia as this great evil superpower determined to go against the west out of spite at every opportunity has hindered a lot of chances to bring the two sides closer together

Not to say there aren't a lot of criticisms to make of them though, like with what Shaun mentioned
