    Is it? Well the first reason is the geographical proximity to the russian republic.

    The second might be that Russian is considerably easier to learn than the other close languages: chinese(s) and korean [it's true for native speakers of english, I don't know to what extent the same goes for native speakers of japanese]

    Same reason some Koreans take up Russian names, – "opposites attract".
