First, if Russia controls the engines then any deorbiting will be the
responsibility of Russia. Second, why would you pay any attention to
someone who thinks the ISS doesn't pass over Russia?

Russia controls the part of the International Space Station that

head of Russia's space agency, made this threat about what would
happen if the west does not cooperate with Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"/If you block cooperation with us, who will save the ISS from an
uncontrolled deorbit and fall into the United States or Europe? There
is also the option of dropping a 500-ton structure to India and China.
Do you want to threaten them with such a prospect? The ISS does not
fly over Russia, so all the risks are yours./"
