As I explained in my first message in August they will not promote it
without the translation.
One suggestion would be to have the languages the page is available in in
brackets after the name of the country (and links if the page is in more
than one language)

Hi John,
I understand the request. Given the timing and that everyone is busy
organizing and the lack of response here, I don't expect that this will
happen in the next 24 hours. Based on past years, I get the impression it
takes you usually about a week to get in touch with UNESCO, so that would
put us already well beyond the deadline.
Hence my suggestion to just try with what we have. Having a landing page
in Russian but then all links to non-Russian pages could also be argued to
be somewhat misleading.
