Russophilia

Russophilia is the admiration and fondness of Russia, particularly the Russian government and Russian history but sometimes also Russian culture. The opposite of Russophilia is Russophobia. Russophilia is particularly wide spread in the authoritarian left, who still refuse to accept that the Soviet Union fell and hope to somehow bring it back by supporting a oligrachic  reactionary government. It's also fairly wide spread amongst, particularly the European, reactionaries who see  Putin's Russia as somewhat of an ideal to strive towards. Many russophiles are also influenced by the Russian state-backed RT propaganda network.
