No, it's not. Alma was founded by CloudLinux, which is a Russian company with a Russian owner, mostly Russian and Eastern Europe developers and fake US address. As of today, CloudLinux still plays a critical role in Alma.
Aside from CloudLinux's involvement with AlmaLinux[0], I can't find much online that verifies any of this information.
For those of us interested in investigating, could you provide any information to support these claims? It looks like FUD when these claims have no backing information associated with them -- but if there is more information available I would love to know.
According to his Linkedin[1] and an interview[2] the CEO of CloudLinux -- Igor Seletskiy -- lives in California. From some brief reading it seems his company is remote and I think I saw some content that he may have Russian employees, but didn't see anything notable that was worth linking here.
There's hardly any job openings now but there used to be a lot that required or strongly recommended Russian language. A couple of years ago, I was on the verge of working for TuxCare.
