Russia plans to establish an independent Linux development community after the removal of Russian contributors from Linux kernel development.

    It would be “interesting” at best.

        Because Russia is under sanctions. They would have to take everything into there own hands which means they would basically have a separate project.

          That’s what a fork is. Happens all the time.

            It really doesn’t happen all the time. It is pretty rare for a fork to be successful especially if most of the development is still happening on the original project. I don’t see Russia having much success with this.
