Russian is one of the most popular languages in the world, but is is also one of the hardest ones. It takes a long time to learn Russian for foreign people. Some even give up and stop! For me it's easy because I speak it since I was born. Probably every language is hard... The problem is that in Russian there are lot's of completely different words, the spelling is difficult and the accent is weird, not like others. If not this, it'd be simple as English of Spanish!
