That dataset is biased. Russia is under numerous sanctions and no western country will consider sputnik due to political pressure, even when licensing vaccine from Russia would benefit EU, as an example, currently missing the timely delivery of tens of millions of doses.

Sanctions would have no point if they were abandoned whenever they would benefit the sanctioning country. Most (arguably all) trade between the EU and Russia would benefit the EU too, but the belief is that the harm to Russia is more severe and more likely to bring about political and diplomatic changes.
