IMHO preliminary CVR shows that ATC totally mixed up, confusing crew of Tupolev made them looking for conflicting traffic at 2 o’clock position while has indicating on TCAS display conflicting traffic approaching from the 9 o’clock and finally giving radar advise that conflicting traffic is at FL360 just before DHL leaves following their own RA! And my feelings that actually Tupolev crew was really considering follow RA but supervisor pilot has gave an order to follow ATC

What a damn things could happen, unbelievable
