Wikipedia explains it as follows...
A Russian seven string is tuned differently than the Spanish guitar.
It is tuned in thirds instead of fifths, a G major chord as follows:
D', G', B, D, g, b, d'
The A major chord is simply a barré on the second fret, the B major is
a barré on the fourth, C major on the fifth, D major on the seventh,
and so on.
