Please provide me with the exact location of your quote. I searched the report and the only occurence of "AOM" does not nearly state anything you quoted.

The important section (which is diametrically to your "quote") can be found on page 53 in the english report, where the TU154M FOM is quoted (although in translation from russian):

(2) For the avoidance of in-flight collisions is the visual control of the situation in the airspace by the crew and the correct execution of all instructions issued by ATC to be viewed as the most important tool. TCAS is an additional instrument which ensures the timely determination of on-coming traffic, the classification of risk and, if necessary, planning of an advice for a vertical avoidance manoeuvre.
