I seriously doubt that a Russian-hosted option is going to be of interest to anyone outside of Russia.

I think the Russian-hosted option also should not be considered by anyone inside Russia other that Russian government.

If you are concerned about TLA agencies having access to your data, Russian servers look like a very good choice.

Umm, concerned about TLA agencies, you say; then how about FSB?

the usual argument is that typical citizens have more to fear from their own intelligence agencies than from foreign ones outside their country's sphere of influence.

then again, it is probably futile for a normal person to even include TLAs in their threat model.
