The Russian purchased engines are old from the soviet era and the plans in the hands of P&W are related to that old,unmodernized one RD-130. Russia upgrade those engines to RD-180 which in turn derived from RD-170 and RD-171 before handing them over to ULA.
As an Iraqi, I second you, we still feel the bite of America by blood and the spoiling of our lives after 11 years of invasion and occupation, left with a failed state ruled by mafias, gangs and outlaws. We and all countries in the region never suffered a Russian aggression, on the contrary they (the Russians) were always friendly without imposing certain polices on us like asking to boycott America or X or Y of their adversaries. They don't put strings attached to their aids including military, the opposite to the "exceptional" Americans.
