The reasons are many. Some countries have historical relations with Moscow, dating back to the Cold War and decolonization.
South Africa does not forget, for example, the help of Moscow to fight against the apartheid regime, supported by Westerners.
Other countries depend on Russia for their military equipment or the security of the regimes in place.
India, whose army is mainly equipped by Moscow, does not want to take the risk of seeing its supply line cut.
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are linked to Moscow for the determination of production volumes and therefore the prices of energy raw materials.
Blindly follow Westerners
If Westerners continue to define a diplomatic agenda among themselves, thinking that they will be able to impose it without difficulty on the rest of the world, they will come up against serious disappointment.
