    Same with GOSTs here.

    GOST = ГОСТ = (Меж)государственный Стандарт = (Inter)national Standard

    Was just National Standard during USSR.

      Wait you used both Latin and Cyrillic scripts to describe that.

      Are they both used in former Soviet countries? Are the Cyrillic words phonetically closer to what GOST would sound like?
