The West have a pretty ignoble history of propping up barbaric regimes as well, before the Arab Spring Mubarak was one of our great allies as was Gaddafi in recent years, and right now we continue to support the likes of the Saudis and the Bahrainis despite the abuses that their governments are carrying out. It might not be publicly admitted anymore but all the superpowers have their spheres of influence and are prepared to overlook their principles to maintain those, Russia is no different to the West in this

There isn't enough space here for me to fully disagree with this comment.
