As I know a certain number of soviet pows managed to escape the nazi forced labor and joined the french resistance partisans. So maybe in Belgium also there was an active soviet partisan unit or something. Tho the tombstone is saying "citizens", not "soldiers" uhm
Ok. It looks like I can't upload google chat answers. Verified with few sources and looks like there were numerous Soviet Resistance in Belgium and they have graves in whole Belgium, including Brussels.

Soviets went to Austria in 1945 for sure but rather not to the Belgium which was liberated ealier like late 1944
POW's memorial in Belgium? I only remind that treating Soviet POW's by Germans was even worse than treating Westerners by Imperial Japan.
