Hi Rubin, yes - Facebook offers targeting both per language and per location (i.e. per country; and in some countries also on a sub-country level). I have re-shared it targeted to Russian language users; for the geotargeting, which countries do you mean aside from Russia?
(We usually find that a geotargeted post reaches more users than a language-targeted one, even when a country consists almost entirely of speakers of that language. One can also select both at the same time, but unfortunately it seems that FB interprets this as "AND" - i.e. showing the post only to users who are both located in that country and have that language selected. Therefore we normally post twice, once geotargeted and once language-targeted.)
