For a Russian, the choice is between a Russian-made jet with full manufacturer support (however good or bad that is), or a Western-made jet that Russian operators are trying to keep flying with locally fabricated, non manufacturer approved parts. It's not like a Boeing or Airbus still operating in Russia is free from quality worries.
