It's more that these countries don't want to harm their own economies; but, don't want to harm global relationships with the West.
Iran, they probably hate how bi-polar US politics can be towards, them but want out of the economic sanctions they are in.
None of these countries have a good reason to support Russia, but none of them can go against Russia as they don't trust the West to use this as a path to a close relationship.
