In Ukraine and Russia:

Men shake hands at every hello (I shake hands every morning with my Russian co-workers). Men that are related may also customarily kiss on the cheek or on the lips. Oldest members in my family do it, but it's not that much used anymore. Hugs are also common.

Kisses on the cheek and hugs for women. Both for man/woman and woman/woman greetings.
