But.. Finland won in 2006. Russia never won before, wouldn't they have won every year since like 2003 when the east countries started coming in?

I don't think Russia should've won, but it didn't win entirely because of neighbors. I think what happened was, that a lot of people wanted a slow, "beautiful" song to win and a lot of people wanted an upbeat song to win. If you look at 2nd place, it's a chick with an upbeat song. 3rd place, it's a chick with an upbeat song. 4th place, it's a chick with an upbeat song. The votes for the upbeat songs were split and it came in favor of Russia who had no real slow song competition.
