That US agencies are actively working to destroy anonymity of (hopefully only selected, but who knows?) Tor users is an undisputable fact. Your implicit assumption that Russia is also attacking Tor is, however, unfounded.

Now, what is the reasoning behind that?

There is, however, ZERO evidence that they are going head to head with America doing that.

Is there any evidence that America is doing this? (Outside the snowden leaks, o/c, because they don't cover russia.)

I believe that what is needed is changing Tor to accommodate a lot of small relays running by a very large number of volunteers, and to push real traffic through them.

And where do you want to get these?
