Old New Year (or "Stary novy god") is celebrated in what Orthodox countries?

Answer Russia and Eastern Europe

Starting the New Year off by the Julian AND the Gregorian calendar means you get to have two New Year celebrations. Old New Year is a holiday celebrated on January 14 in Orthodox countries, because the religion historically used the Julian calendar. Old New Year is celebrated much like regular New Year with drinking, singing, dancing, and eating a large traditional meal on the agenda.
