They only forbid Russian residents from having direct access to production servers. That means sysadmin and devops roles. Russians are employed in other positions.

Inserting a bug on purpose that makes it into production seems very hard. This sounds aimed at making media/investors happy.

Most of those sanctions got lifted by Trump right?

Wrong. On the contrary, Trump administration imposed additional sanctions that prevented Nord Stream 2 from being complete — which Biden administration have reversed.

Western media portrayed Trump as "pro-Putin", but if you look at the actual decisions by administrations, he was the one who really pushed back against Putin, compared both to Obama and Biden.

No and he actually imposed new sanctions while in office.
