Russia needs critical support because they are simply not marxist or any other flavour of leftism and therefore every pro-russia stance will be followed with that they need to fundamentally change.
This is different from, say, vietnam or china where we would criticise their approach to communism, but more in a friendly way towards comrades so that they can do better.
I think of it that it is critical that we support Iran and Russia no matter their politics and laws as long as they stay anti-imperialist whereas our support for China is a given because they are comrades.
