Unable to create Azure account in Russian Federation

Question

Greetings,

it is impossible to register, after clicking on registration (on russian version) some third-party redirect appears (company Softline  - http://azure.softline.ru/freetrial/) and requests full data of my Windows Live account to give trial key.

Is it possible to create Azure account (maybe without trial) directly on azure.com?

thank you

update: on https://account.windowsazure.com/signup many countries are listed except Russia

Hi.

I am sure that option for Russia will appear in nearest future (Microsoft announced officially this). Please wait. At this moment it is real to register a test account only on Softline site or if you can have some bonuses (if you are a teacher in the university or enterpreneur etc).
