Answer:
similarities: Both countries have immense natural resources and environmental diversity. Together with their military power, size makes both Russia and the U.S. hard to ignore in political alliances; it is not news that both countries are core states in their regional alliances and will be for many years, although with challenges.
differences: Russia is not the country of the people; it is the country of the government. For example, American government cares about people and their health, so they let American people know what the situation in their country is. There for Russia is the exact opposite; they hide the information about the virus and unaware people don’t use any protection, so they get sick and a huge population of elderly people die.
