I myself have been to Russia several times and as someone who married a Russian who I met when I visited the first time and a university student I can attest to the surprised looks me and my wife recieved (my dark complexion and she being a Russian/White complexioned) however overtime I have noticed that major cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg are tending to be more multicultural (by Russian standards) because they are frequented by foreign tourists and here and there one can see interracial couples so overall the acceptance of non-Russians has been improving.
