The Soviet Union had no authority over either the Moon or the United States. It was not for them to "allow" anything. We went when we we darn well felt like it and were ready. The first landing was July 20, 1969.
As far as is known to the public, no Russian cosmonauts have orbited the moon or landed on it. The only spacecraft to have carried human beings more than a few hundred miles above the surface were those of the US' Mercury and Apollo programs.
Sputnik - first satellite, 1957 Yuri Gagarin - first man to orbit the earth, 1961 Use any decent search engine (Google, Ask, etc.) for more details. BEFORE America - that's for sure.
