Yes, the alien base assault can actually be used strategically to lower global panic levels should you require it. On my current Classic difficulty run, I had this problem of Russia being at full Panic level despite having a satellite over it, and I had only 10 days to the Council Report. My Outsider Shard only needed 2 days to research though, so I researched that, completed the Alien Base Assault, and got Russia's panic down in time to prevent them from leaving. With me having full global coverage by that time (asides from Egypt and Nigeria, who've already left), my global situation now always hovers around 1-2 panic points per country with no sign of spiralling out of control.
