In Russian (and other Cyrillic alphabets in former Soviet Union)
typographic tradition the double-angle quotation marks (guillemotleft and
guillemotright) usually have shape different from French ones: inner
angles have less size. Look at attachments. Now for Russian texts are
used special fonts (typically in CP1251 encoding) with similar glyphs
instead of ordinary guillemotleft and guillemotright. There is no way to place
the both variants in an unicode font.
