National pride, perhaps? The 2nd nation in history to land a human on the Moon would be absolutely astonishing.
Additionally, to help in the establishment of a lunar base to serve as a platform for rocket launches to Mars or for mining operations; tasks that cannot be fully completed - even by robots.
I stand corrected. I did not realize they never landed cosmonauts. I swear I thought I had read they did but then I have not a lot of knowledge of that area.
