Still back to Russia.
Don't CHANGE the last line. Instead, you'd better just ADD the word Russia 
to the whole address. The matter is, addresses in Russia goes oppositely, 
i.e. first Russia (if mentionned at all), then city and zip code, etc, and 
it ends with the receipee's name. So maybe you just cut the name i/o 
Russia... Besides, if the receipee's name is not mentionned on a letter sent 
to a P.O.Box, postal authorities can decline to release it.
All n'all, just keep it as is.

It only concerns Russia, but not most of other ex-USSR countries.
