Is it worth naming a domain like a popular foreign site?

There is a very popular foreign site (let's call it mysite.com).
I really like this name and it fits well with the theme of my future site.
The question is, is it worth calling the domain mysite.ru and what are the minuses or pluses, if any, in this?
I suspect that it will be difficult to promote it, since when you query mysite in a search engine, a bunch of links pop up to this popular foreign site, as well as to its social pages. networks. Is it so?

Not worth it. This "mysite.com" will be a direct competitor to you for the query "mysite", and if it is really popular, then it will be difficult to deal with it, people will click on the first link in the search results and will not get to you. And if in a few years suddenly mysite.com decides to expand to the "ru" zone, you will be a cybersquatter =)
