I cannot provide an objective answer but where I live (former eastern block) the answer was basically yes. Not so much in the media but common people saw US as a clear aggresor which sparked unnecessary war just to get access to more oil or land or something. I have to admit also I myself was very anti-american at that time because of the war in Irak

So yeah, pretty much how we see Russia nowadays
