With the absolutely stonking caveat that the US government didn't mandate that, it just happened naturally over time. Over decades and decades. Particularly helped by the US speaking English. In a lot of parts of the world English is a good second language.
But the only people who speak Russian is Russia. No one has Russian is their second language outside of a few Baltic states and even then often it's a tertiary language, not a true second language. This is a huge limiter on their ability to spread culture.
