I think MGS: 3 does this best. The entire game takes place in Russia and most of the dialogue outside of with command is with Russians so they just say that the characters are speaking Russian to each other. Pretty sure the scientist you meet at the beginning of the game even comments on Snakes Russian being good.
The Hunt for Red October did the same, the first minutes are in Russian with subtitles and then it slips into English mid sentence as if the audience adapted to the language. Very effective actually.
Doesn't change the fact that it's Sean Connery's brogue on a Russian naval captain, but at least it somewhat explains it. Clearly the captain is from wherever the Scottish equivalent for Russia is.
I like how his Highlander character adds Egypt, Japan, and Spain together to produce Scotland.

Pretty sure the Russian equivalent of Scotland is like perm to the southern Murals. Or maybe the Cossack descended cultures, IDK the Soviet kinda fucked over this analogy.
Connery's character is Lithuanian.
