Russian did not leave the USSR. Rather, after the disastrous Soviet campaign in Afghanistan, satellites (Providences such as Georgia, Turkmenistan, Estonia, etc) started their own civil wars and pronounced themselves independent nations.
After the Soviet Union collapse in 1991, almost every satellite was an independent country. Russian was one of those.
