> Russian guy saying that he is in Chile in the first sentence? Absolutely nothing suspicious.

Being Russian doesn't make you suspicious of anything.

There are lots of young Russian people coming to Latin America recently, presumably (if I had to guess) to escape the war. Source: seen this with my own eyes.

It is strange to mention that he is in Chile and not mention that he is a Russian citizen, and the apps come from a Russian company that was recently re-registered(??? or not) somewhere else.

It could be sanctions, and it is not related to reviews at all.

I'm not sure - is it strange? I moved countries 7 years ago and I probably wouldnt mention my complete immigration history...
Are you a national of a country currently at war and heavily sanctioned by almost every large economy in the world?
I mean, Viktor doesn’t sound very Chilean to me.
Still not a good indication: many Latin American countries received a heavy influx of immigration from countries in Europe (and elsewhere). This is noticeable in our names and surnames, too. It's not all Spanish names.
