"Can USA Congress act on behalf of Russia?"

Of course it can, Congress can authorize emergency funding in the wake of a natural disaster (happens all the time, whenever some tragic natural disaster occurs), I'd need further clarification of what you mean exactly, to answer you more clearly though.

 

I would say they absolutely have no desire to engage in open conflict w/ the US.

Can the US congress decide for Russia? I mean, can the Congress on the United Stated of America tell Russia if they are authorized to declare war? What kind of jurisdiction have the US Congress on the United States of America over Russia?

Eh?  So you're saying Russia attacks/declares war on the US?  Given the military capabilities of both countries, I find that highly unlikely.    Russia's working on regaining their old military might, but they've got a ways to go, yet.
