Hi and welcome to the forum.

Your English is just fine 😄 however I think I'm going to be the bearer of bad news 😒

You have to be the original owner of the iPhone and on the Vodaphone Network to unlock any iPhone locked to the Vodaphone Network.

If your neither of these then you'll need to contact the original owner to ask them to follow this link http://support.vodafone.co.uk/Setting-up-and-using-your-phone/Unlock-your-phone/

If you can't contact the original owner then I'm afraid your stuck with a locked to the Vodaphone Network handset.

You're welcome. 😎

I wish you all the best with your communication with the original owner / account holder regarding unlocking the iPhone.

Yes until this procedure has been completed it will not accept your Russian Sim Card.

Good luck.
