was surprised to see that 11% of russians have no access to indoor toliets (16M people) compared to ukraine's 4%. (1.8M) russia has a lot of concentrated oil wealth but that clearly has not trickled down to the poorest.

To me it's not surprise at all. I don't know the exact numbers, but rural population in Russia must be quite big, with they have very remote regions in Siberia. I don't imagine a hut there with indoor toilets.
Speaking of Brazil, another massive country (although half of size of Russia) there are massive regional differences. Those are
2010 Census numbers, so things have changed a lot since then. By April we'll have 2022 Census numbers:
------------- Households --- House w/ no toleits
BRASIL --- 57,324,167 --- 1,514,992 --- 2.64%
Norte --- 3,975,533 --- 183,857 --- 4.62%
Nordeste --- 14,922,901 --- 1,165,721 --- 7.81%
Centro-Oeste --- 4,334,673 --- 27,410 --- 0.63%
Sudeste --- 25,199,781 --- 96,617 --- 0.38%
Sul --- 8,891,279 --- 41,387 --- 0.47%
We see North (Amazon) and Northeast, the poorest regions, have a quite big number of households with no bathroom. Numbers on the other three are negligible, probably most of them on rural areas.
