I don't think it's necessarily any one site either. There's a lot, especially because LJ is sort of hybrid in the features they have, meaning there's a variety of 'competitors.'
Eh... I think that there are other countries to that do have a competitive social networking sphere as well. I personally don't know that much about the market in Russia (I do know that IIRC their most popular social network isn't Facebook). So I actually have no idea what the real reasons behind LJ remaining popular in Russia are.
