I'd say definitely Ukrainian & Serbo-Croatian as my first pick. Also, Belorussian & Bulgarian to a slightly lesser extent.

Belorussian is very close to Russian - the main difference being when the Russians just pronounce /a/ for unstressed 'o' the Belorussians also write the a.

The closest are Ukrainian and Belorussian. Others are farther. Bulgarian has similar
phonology, spelling and vocabulary, but very different grammar. Czech, in the opposite,
has different phonology but similar grammar.

Though for the original poster most Slavic languages are pretty close to Russian, and I am not so sure that the nearest language to Russian (Belarusian?) is automatically the easiest to learn after Russian. I'd choose a language a step or two farther, but still Slavic.
