Because in the video she declares "Russians are a nationalist people" and simultaneously not once clarifies that she disagrees with the government. When you say you love your country it is assumed you mean its government too unless you say otherwise.

They are raised from birth to hate the West and believe their tyrannical government's lies. This compounds the need to expressly rebuke Putin etc for Russians looking for sympathy.
