The red army adopted elements of the Imperial Russian uniform under the nationalistic guidance of Stalin (Stalin despite being a committed communist, a Georgian rather than Russian, and evil was a big fan of Russian dynastic history, and an expert on the politics and strategic policy of it), as time went on they made it look even more like the Imperial one's, bringing back shoulder straps and the type of leather belts officers used to wear. This was controversial at the time as the red army had previously worn civil war elements of uniform specifically meant to make them look distinct from the Imperial army.
Don Cossacks as a military estate wore military style uniforms, traditionally their colours were blue and red, they would wear blue trousers with a wide red stripe, but traditionally also a thick blue coat in peasant style, however during modernisation the coat was removed and they were told to wear the army issue shirt with other elements in their colours and the same trousers. This is what modern 'Don' Cossacks wear, they are politically monarchist and religiously orthodox, the soviets pretty much wiped them out so it is a revival movement. Usually they want the old station of a military elite back, but also the Tsar and Empire. Their symbolism is all constructed around these, lots of monarchist flags, orthodox iconography and old imperial uniform elements, though usually not very closely following the old regulations, especially as their lack of military function has made them ridiculously officer heavily as their shoulderboards are silver and everyone wants those.

The economies of eastern Europe have taken off, they were awful in the nineties, but that was two decades ago. Poland and the Baltic states have taken off, Ukraine and the Balkans are better not to ask about.
Russia is doing fine, very well by the standards of the last few decades, not as well as during the later Soviet Union or even to a certain extent tsarist times. These things are all relative, outside of London much of the UK is directly comparable to Poland, but it doesn't look like it as they have a patrimony of ancient buildings and a culture of cleanliness and decency, ask them how they are doing and there are few jobs, high expenses, a rise in crime and a related one in migrants and those nice houses are very often owned by foreign investors. Depending on how you look at it you will take it differently, in Russia you can buy a house but it will be a commieblock, in England you can't buy a house but if you could it would look nice, were you are renting however doesn't, costs a fortune and is full of the scum of the earth.
Russia is a bit depressing as a country but things are looking up, in the west people are hopeless because things are hopeless.

Betraying any trust that was put in him. A man has his honour, whether or not he fights on the right side, this man would have had more honour is he had gone full hog and actually turned cloak and gone to fight for Russia, instead he is a traitor to a cause he willingly joined and to everyone who helped him.
He was saved by Ukrainian soldiers, they were the one's who got him out of dodge and put him up in a safehouse. Fine if he regrets joining a war without knowing anything, but divulging sensitive information to the enemy is a betrayal, even if it is not a betrayal to what you value it is a betrayal all the same.
Whistle blowing on war crimes can be admirably, so long as it is true. Doing what he did both marks prior claims as suspect and makes it very clear that he is someone without decency or honour. Traitors can not be trusted by anyone, even those they turned traitor for. They have displayed their character more than enough, they have desecrated things sacred to any man, word, oath, obligation, thus it is clear that if there is anything holy to such a man it is unholy in the eyes of God.
