The reason is very simple—they do not understand our peoples. They do not understand that the views of Russians and Americans are much closer to each other than to European views.
What is one of the main signs of a free person? It is the right to bear arms. And this right exists for both Americans and Russians, but not for Europeans.
They simply cannot understand that it is normal for free people to gravitate toward each other and have respectful relationships with one another.
Russia has one of the best gun laws in the world, and Russians respect weapons. This brings Russians closer to Americans. Europeans simply cannot understand this because their authorities have forbidden them from defending themselves, forbidden them from taking responsibility for owning anything more dangerous than a blunt 3cm knife. A slave cannot understand free people, and that is why Europeans do not understand why Americans and Russians have become so close.
