  • In 2022, Russia decided to invade Ukraine. Why? It's not because of Putin, it's because Russia has only around 20 years before complete economic and societal collapse. Yikes. So why is this happening and what measures is Russia taking to secure their safety?

    There was actually a plan for the Soviet Union to sort of stay around called the "Union of Sovereign States", where most of the post-soviet states (All except the baltics, Georgia, and Armenia) would be semi-independent nations led by a council in Moscow with a unified foreign policy. It was supported by the majority of the population in all the remaining soviet states, but the attempted coup in 1991 killed the idea.

    While I do think this is an accurate analysis of what Russia is going through, let's not forget that not only Russia is close to a demographic crisis but the whole Europe is.
    There isn't a single European country that has an above replacement level birth rate, some balkan and baltic nations are suffering from dramatic depopulation crisis and western europe is increasingly having to rely on non-european immigrants to keep their population afloat and it's still not enough while also creating the same problems Russia has with too many ethnic minorities.

Humans are migrants by definition, and "native" is a made-up concept that makes sense only from a tribalistic perspective. How do you define that a population is "native" in a certain place? a couple of centuries living there? a thousand years? it's always arbitrary, you can't define it in an objective way. Western China and Native Americans being wiped out? LOL "native" populations do the same to each other, look at the aztecs or the ancient greeks.

    Man this is all good and logical but it shows that you've never been to Russia and you probably don't really understand how it works. By Russia I don't mean Moscow and Saint P, I mean the rest of it. This country will Never Die. And I don't mean it in any heroic/patriotic/propaganda-oriented way, there is no emotion in it. Throughout history Russia got beaten, partially conquered, decimated, mutilated, thrown into the moral nothingness of capytalistic world after the fall of USSR, and is still here. It's just a fact. Hard to argue with. Now Russia is going through yet another dark phase of its existence. That's also a fact. And imo it's not even the darkest part of this phase at the moment. But will it die as a country? I don't think so. It will drastically change though, that's for sure.

    It's a huge misconception that Russia had no industry by World War I. Russia was industrializing rapidly just prior to the war. The big problem Russia faced was that it couldn't easily retool that industry to support a war effort. So a factory that made tools couldn't easily be converted into making guns. Most of this industry was wiped out during the Russian Civil War and then the Soviets understanding the need for a strong industry rapidly, but more importantly forced industrialization. Which along with the prior wars collapsed Russia's birthrate and killed millions.

Not to mention they literally called Putin "evil" in the video.

Iran still stands and Iran won't collapse anytime soon. The same can be said for Russia.

    I guess to an extent the problem here is that Russian leadership wants to continue Russia along at some what of a same stature level as before, while of course also becoming rich off of it. Excessive pride and greed are common themes before major disasters.
    Of course this also indicates a way Russia could get out of it, 'if' it were capable of such a reform. Which is to limit its ambitions and greed, to invest more in the country while for instance aligning with other entities and accept it isn't able to do everything on its own any more. In such a case a realistic policy could be made and the country could survive and the people could even become substantially more wealthy. It's the kind of adjustment the various European nations to their West made, at times with great difficulty, but when done successfully gave them a new window to a future.
    Still, that's a pretty big 'if', is Russia at the moment capable of reinventing itself?

    However, is this a guarantee of the future collapse of Russia? I doubt. Over the next 20-30 years, the situation inside Russia itself may change repeatedly, and the option of overcoming all of the above problems cannot be ruled out.

      Russia is losing influence in its own backyard which was the central asian steppe towards its own "ally" china, and china will have more and more influence over russia due to its isolation becoming a one sided relationship, more like the relation between the us and mexico (im not saying it will become exactly that, but it will go one side, to the chinas side)

Should i continues ? I mean yeah russsia could have steamrolled over the nation if they brough more than 600.000 troops, used their strategic and tactical bombers and had raised everrything to the ground leaving mass civilian casualties they could have wraped this in a month or so something like what the americans did in iraq. However i dout any of us want so much casualties.
      1:37 sending mem in the grinder for a lost cause isnt putting up a good fight its just grinding yourself to nothingness.

First they said it was only about a month untill the sanctions start to work, then they said it was a few months now theya re saying years after that it will be decades. There are many opinions on this somw say the russian economy wont even get a scratch some say they will be severly dmaaged. One thing is certain europenas are not happy with how much they have to sacrifice for a natio that they dont even care for. Sancrions also have an effect on the nation that inplements them as well further making our economic crisis worse.
      1:50 nope
      1:53 how can you be so bold ?

      2:20 doeamt mean there arent any recources and as isad with the way climate chenge is going things might change. I see people applying the thing i say to greenland and everything you siad can as well be applied to greenland but it somehow matter only for russia ?
      2:40 its as if the russian are tired of this and want to prevent it hmm maybe maybe understanding that and trying to be considarate would mean a whole lot to the russians.
      2:51 uhhh not realy they do the scorched earth tactic becauase all armies no matter how many supplies they have always run out of them and need more so they always go for the napoleonic approach of feeding of the land. Unless russia is hit quickly they will pull you in a slow drawn out battle where they will grind you to death.
      3:32 that js whay they are doing what they are doing.
      3:38 yeah what if ? The russians habe already said it they will not fear to use any and all weapon of mass destruction in heir aresenl if such an attack occured
      3:42 ok cool but what next ? They take moscow blow up the Kremlin or st.Basil and then what ? Where do we go from here ? Remeber one frenchman did that, the poles did it and what did russia surrender ? No they kept fighing and fighing. Many people see moscow as the endgame but this iant france or germany, no this nation is whole different animal. Mustache man was criticised by many for not listening to his generals but infact in most of rhe tiems he was right when he was proposing to take key cities with industeies or oil field they wanted to have trip to moscow. Then that turned into a trip to berlin.
      4:06 precisely why they have been inveating in alternatice routs like the arctic or the one from india through iran to russia.
      4:16 giess the black sea is useless is this why it was a major point of inteest for nato which they lost when the russians retook crimea oofff that sweet sevastopol port would have been so nice if it was in the hands of nato but its not. I dont think i need to mention turkey we already know the relation it has with russia.
      7:22 hmm lets fact check this shall we using 2002-2010 data
      In the nenets autonomous okrug
      ethnic russians are thr ones who ahve grown in number.
      In the kalmyk repubic russian have gone down slightly but so as orher ethnic groups the main ome the kalmyks are keeping their population up bu the increase is slow
      In the republic of degestan its the same as in kalmyk although here is the problen such a diverse republic of 13 ethnic groups will not be able to stay alive for long not to mention its largely tribal so even if they wanted to and they dont want to no resistance can be offered to russia authorities.
      In the altai region this time with data from 2014 russians are still the majority and have decreased with less than a 2000 for 12 years while the ethnic population has increased with the same amount for the same time.
      In chukotka the number of people is low very low the natives chukchians make up only 26.7% of the population and with a growth of 100 people per 10 yeara they arent replacingbthe ethnic slavic (russian ukrainian population) which is more than half of the population there.
      In buryatia ths slavic population is still the majority with the main ethnic group the buryats growing with 14.000 for about 8 years.
      In the zabalkayski krai the slavic population is almost a million while the ethnic tatars and buryats dont number combined even a 100 thousand.
      8:07 one thing that is a stereotype by our time. Russsia has taken extensive measures to adress this problem and has been droping in alcohol abuse and consumption a lot in the recent years. Btw the highest alcohols consumption rates are held by other europeans nations like hungary, latvia, slovakia,etc.
      8:41 i dont know where your statisitcs come from but they are wrong data from johns hopkin university shows that only 377k have died in russia. How much od them were old and how many ethnic russians ? Considering that the majority of people who die from covid are the old ones.
      8:45 no official death tol has been released but even the worst case scenario its going to be nothing like the cope from the brittish and the pentagon who have lied to us before time and time
      9:05 no they were not they were an empire that was going to be a masive unbeatable giant until the dumb bolsheviks appeared also alcohol was not a comodity in imperial russia.
      9:46 to say all rulers treared russians badly is to say that the frech monarchy was alwsys so generous to its people
      10:02 wow you mean that improvrished farming wasnt the status quo in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuary in other natiins considering the industrial revoluti started in 1760 before which even the richest european peasants werent exactlymiles ahed of their russian coubterparts or yards or inches even.
      10:09 how was the japanses force infieior ? They had almost the exact number of men as the russians and have been industrializing and getting recources from korea, the number of deaths is alsp simular on both sides. This is written as a big loss foe the russians but in reality everybody just downplays how much of power japan was and its done on purpose to sh*t on the russians just like now with ukraine which btw had one of the largest armies in europe.
      10:15 the russian started to have problems with suply late in the war
      10:16 is this why their producrion doubled and were begining to industrialize ? Yes they disnt had the industrial capacity of western nations but the major problem was revolution
      10:25 what was the strategy for the others then ? No seriosly what was their genious western doctrines ?
      What was the price for a mile of land on the western front ?
      10:42 none of those descriptions mattered as communism was forced and there was support for the tsar or for anything that wasnt communist
      10:50 i am from an eastern block nation and i know how these apartments look they arent small at all.

    Some points to consider: 1) The perestroika tried (in a clumsy way) to fix the incredibly inefficient and centralized decaying economy and system of the communist regime, the Soviet Union was already crumbling, perestroika or not. 2) Ukraine has found huge deposits of oil and gas that can easily replace those of Russia: that, paired with its turn towards the West, made the invasion more than likely. Ukraine population is also quite aged with its younger people working abroad, is wasn't that much of a population gain (though obviously it would have helped). 3) Nuclear weapons are very costly to upkeep and maintain: their mythical huge numbers are to be taken seriously but with a grain of salt, it's not like they can be dismissed but you have to wonder how many of those thousands of nukes are operative, what is a state secret and could be quite low. 4) The population collapse is a shared problems with all developed nations, no one is safe. But Russia again, it privates Russia of its traditional strength of solving problems (send big numbers to die) and without it, it won't be able to maintain such bloated borders. Ukraine may be its last "just send thousands to die" strategy, yet they are not taking the big cities' youth for fear of a political revolt.

All the jobs available are bad low paying jobs. And I understood that I was not stupid, I was not lazy. I have no future, the whole country has no future, because all married couples I know have one kid for M + W.

    People have been pointing out these problems for literally centuries. Germany in both world wars thought they could “kick down the door and bring down the whole rotten structure”. These problems severely harm any efforts to become a modern industrialized economy and Russian society and governance is totally corrupt but by no means is it in danger of not existing.
    The secessionist threat is also not really that big. Yes “only” 75% of Russia is Russian but there is no ethnic group near big enough to actually plausibly ever succeed in full secession. Look at what happened to Grozny. Russia would rather and absolutely will simply level a city before letting it leave their grasp.
    If anything, all this corruption and isolation only strengths Russian cohesion. When all of the west is against Russia, it makes it very easy to unify Russians under the banner of “us vs them”.

      Seeing how inept the russian army is, how ethnic russians are quickly aging and dying out sand how quickly the West will jump in to weaken the Kremlin, secession as a possibility can only increase. These young Chechens who were kids during the war are now becoming fathers. The turkic folks may eventually decide to team with China. Things have changed completely.

      Absolutely. Russia DOES have many problems, which is why it is so underpopulated, poor and backward. But that doesn't mean it will cease to exist and more than other countries with problems. Personally I don't want to live in a country run by kleptocrats, with a male life expectancy of 58, endemic unemployment, a per capita GDP like Chile and Equatorial Guinea - where even that money is all siphoned off by the Oligarchs for their super yachts.... But no doubt Russia will continue indefinitely as a backward country with a rose-tinted view of its past and undeserved optimism about its future.

    10:30 , I know this might sound like a good point, but It was actually shocking to conventional Marxist theorists that Russia had a social revolution. It was supposed to happen in the most industrially developed societies: Germany and Britain. What I think people underestimated was: 1.) how rotten the door was to kick through (in regards to the czarist regime) 2.) how few choke points their were in the country to take command and control. The state hadn’t built up the same methods of industrial control in the same way Germany and Britain had. Essentially, capitalism was underdeveloped enough in Russia that it didn’t have the antibodies to prevent a popular socialist uprising

    > only 3/4 of Russia even russian
    As russian i can say that it is totally wrong. People always think that some peoples want to be independent only because their nationality is not like major nationality in the country so they are totally different and they want to be independent. For example you may think that yakuts, tatars, belorussians, mordva and many others are not the same with russians. Sounds belivable. But there is one thing. All nationalities that live in russia mostly even identifying themselves as russians in their documents. Ok, some of them really thinking that they are not russans. But that's not means they want to separate: they just understand that they are not looking like russians. As a great argument I can surely say that all not major peoples are talking only on russian and nothing else: many of the not major peoples even have not their own language. For example I know that most tatars and yakuts don't know their own languages at all even if their regions have special free schools with tatar and yakutian languages. All i am trying to say is that thing that all not major nationalities in Russia are totally integrated and assimilated with Russia and russian culture, they don't mind about their own culture just because they have near lost it while they was integrating and assimilating with Russia with peaceful methods without any violence. Even in USSR and even in Russan Empire every tatar assosiated himselve as russian and that's ok. The only nationality that can try to separate today is chehens. They have tried this before and that is why i do not really belive they can do this again. Many things was done scinse 1998 year so they barely have even small amount of nationalism to rise against Russia. I can say also that chechens today are the most effective soldiers on the ukrainian front so i don't think they even want to separate.
    So even if 1/4 of Russia "is not russian" it is not going to separate. It is literally like the spanish (mexican) people in USA: they are minority but lol most of them are native english speakers and they have not any nationalism at all, they just not have any idea of seperatism to protect because they don't want to have their country and they have no culture to protect and fight for. It is exactly just like the minorities in Russia.

    Many mistakes as in claiming Russia's population was always small. In 1913 it was 12% of the world. If there was no revolution, no civil wars and famines, today Russia would have 400-600 million people also depends on ww2. The 31 years from 1914 to 1945 were hellish in Russia demographic wise. WW1, Revolution, Civil War, Famines due to destroyed infrastructure, forced industrialization just to prepare for an eventual war that everyone was preparing for. Even Stalin said in the 30s that the USSR must do 50 years of industrialization in 10 if it wants to survive the onslaught that was being prepared (Nazi Germany). Unfortunately too many lives were lost because some European country thinks it's too strong and that invading Russia would be a great idea. The Germans have been the worst in this. Especially Nazis that killed tens of millions of civilians apart from military targets. Those 28 million lost from 1941 to 1945 were the actual death blow to Russia. If those 28 million mostly young people that died and were killed had children then the USSR would have not collapsed. 1960s Soviet Union would be more ethnically Slavic and many areas were they were a small minority would be surely populated. The biggest problem with Ukraine is that it was always treated as core Russian land. An extreme ammount of investment went there. Plane factories, ship factories, all kinds of industry was built there. Ukraine since 1654 was part of Russia and no one thought that a drunkard friend of Bill Clinton would basically f*ck up the country in 1991 and would unconstitutionally split it. Also the August coup against Gorbachev by hardline communists killed the desire for a reformed USSR that was voted in favor by more than 75% of the population of 9 republics. At that point only Moldova, Georgia, Armenia and the Baltic countries wanted out. The other 9 (Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Azerbaiyan and all 5 central asian republics wanted to keep the Soviet Union but only with reforms. After the coup against Gorbachev that didn't target Yeltsin for some reason Yeltsin got out and after getting some support expelled the putchists. At the same time he totally banned the Communist party and all of its activities. He was rushing to complete the mission given to him by his Western backers and after banning the CP he just gathered with the presidents of Ukraine and Belarus and dissolved the country and after that Gorbachev instead of putting a fight or doing anything just admitted defeat and resigned. To me it seems like Western money just found the people who had no issue in destroying their country. After that the West instead of integrating Russia into the Western world did everything to cripple all of the Eastern Bloc with their "Shock Therapy" economic doctrine which left most exsocialist countries poor, deindustrialized and with no future. If before Bulgarian wine was sold through the whole socialist bloc of 450 million people, now no one needed it. If before cars built in socialist countries were used and traded in the bloc, western car makers totally wiped the market. And that happened with everything. That's why no exsocialist country has really recovered, all their young go to the capitalist core and eastern europe is dying off faster than any other part of the world

    Eh, I think you're overselling it more than a bit.
    1) Russia has historically had an amazing ability to reconstitute itself, to make a very brief and scant summary, fraught with missing details furthering my point, from before the kievan rus, to the muscovites, to the tsardom, to the USSR, to modern Russia. Through Mongols, the time of troubles, the october revolution, and the fall of a superpower. No mean feat. I don't see them losing that ability now. I suppose one could argue that it's been too soon since Russia reinvented itself, but according to your timeline, they'll fall around 200, by which point it'll have been over 50 years since the fall.
    2) As said above, you've mentioned 2040 pretty specifically as roughly around the time Russia will collapse once and for all. You know what is projected to happen, also around just then? A good and very much useable arctic canal, through Russian waters, with Russian ports. And given how climate estimates lean towards the hopelessly optimistic, I don't think I'd be remiss in saying it'll likely happen way sooner. This'll both provide Russia the ability to diversify it's economy, and suddenly gain easier access to the world markets.
    And lastly, I am in no way stanning Russia, I'm a Swede through and through, I've known Russia as the enemy for as long as I can remember, and I'm willing to suffer if it means the Russian state suffers more. This however also means I cannot underestimate them either.

Let alone the permafrost grounds in a lot of areas would melt and some habitable areas might cease to exist. Also fishing would stop because of marine death and farming areas would face drought. They are naive if they think they would experience the climate crisis positively. By the way the breakdown of Russia should not in my opinion be viewed positively. Whether nuclear materials would be kept safely or not the very absence of a world farming producer would cause famines and economic collapse to a lot of nations dependent on its products

      2:51 uhhh not realy they do the scorched earth tactic becauase all armies no matter how many supplies they have always run out of them and need more so they always go for the napoleonic approach of feeding of the land. Capturing manifacturing facilities, oilfields, bread baskets and so on. Unless russia is hit quickly they will pull you in a slow drawn out battle where they will procede to grind you untill death.
      3:32 that is why they are doing what they are doing.
      3:38 yeah what if ? The russians have already said it they will not fear to use any and all weapons of mass destruction in their arsenal if such an attack occured.
      3:42 alright cool but whats next ? They take moscow blow up the Kremlin or st.Basil blah blah and then what ? Where do we go from here ? Remeber one frenchman did that, the poles did it and what ? Did russia surrender ? No they kept fighing and fighing till they beat their foe to a pulp. Many people see moscow as the endgame but this isnt france or germany, no this nation is whole different animal. Mustache man was criticised by many for not listening to his generals but infact most of the time he was right where his generals were wrong he was proposing to take key cities with industeies or oil fields he didnt wanted to have trip to moscow.
      4:06 precisely why the russiaans have been investing in alternative routs like the arctic or the one from india through iran to russia. We saw how an in ident caused ecomic hardship and costed the global economy billions of dollars.
      4:16 guess the black sea is useless is this why it was a major point of interest for nato which they lost when the russians retook crimea oofff that sweet sevastopol port would have been so nice if it was in the hands of nato but its not. I dont think i need to mention turkey we already know the relation it has with russia.
      7:22 hmm lets fact check this shall we using 2002-2010 data
      In the nenets autonomous okrug
      ethnic russians are thr ones who ahve grown in number.
      In the kalmyk repubic russian have gone down slightly but so as orher ethnic groups the main ome the kalmyks are keeping their population up bu the increase is slow
      In the republic of degestan its the same as in kalmyk although here is the problen such a diverse republic of 13 ethnic groups will not be able to stay alive for long not to mention its largely tribal so even if they wanted to and they dont want to no resistance can be offered to russia authorities.
      In the altai region this time with data from 2014 russians are still the majority and have decreased with less than a 2000 for 12 years while the ethnic population has increased with the same amount for the same time.
      In chukotka the number of people is low very low the natives chukchians make up only 26.7% of the population and with a growth of 100 people per 10 years they arent replacing the ethnic slavic (russian-ukrainian population) which is more than half of the population there.
      In buryatia ths slavic population is still the majority with the main ethnic group the buryats growing with 14.000 for about 8 years.
      In the zabalkayski krai the slavic population is almost a million while the ethnic tatars and buryats dont number combined even a 100 thousand.
      8:07 one thing that is a stereotype by our time. Russsia has taken extensive measures to adress this problem and has been droping in alcohol abuse and consumption a lot in the recent years. Btw the highest alcohols consumption rates are held by other europeans nations like hungary, latvia, slovakia,etc.
      8:41 i dont know where your statisitcs come from but they are wrong data from johns hopkin university shows that only 377k have died in russia. How much of them were old and how many ethnic russians ? Considering that the majority of people who die from covid are the old ones.
      8:45 no official death toll has been released but even the worst case scenario its going to be nothing like the cope from the brittish and the pentagon who have lied to us before time and time.
      9:05 no they were not they were an empire that was going to be a masive unbeatable giant untill the moronic bolsheviks appeared also alcohol was not a comodity in imperial russia.
      9:46 to say all rulers treared russians badly is to say that the frech monarchy was alwsys so generous to its people.
      10:02 you mean that improvrished farming wasnt the status quo in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuary in other natiins considering the industrial revolution started in 1760 before which even the richest european peasants werent exactlymiles ahed of their russian coubterparts or yards or inches even.
      10:09 how was the japanses force infieior ? They had almost the exact number of men as the russians and have been industrializing and getting recources from korea, the number of deaths is alsp simular on both sides. This is written as a big loss foe the russians but in reality everybody just downplays how much of power japan was and its done on purpose to sh*t on the russians just like now with ukraine which btw had one of the largest armies in europe.
      10:15 the russian started to have problems with suply late in the war
      10:16 is this why their producrion doubled and were begining to industrialize ? Yes they disnt had the industrial capacity of western nations but the major problem was revolution
      10:25 what was the strategy for the others then ? No seriosly what was their genious western doctrines ?
      What was the price for a mile of land on the western front ?
      10:42 none of those descriptions mattered as communism was forced and there was support for the tsar or for anything that wasnt communist

      0:41 invaded crimea hmmm thats like saying castel invaded catalonia. Slavs were on the peninsula even before the tatars which were btw in smal numbers and did not claim nor inhabit all of the peninsula. You can go and fact check this in teh wiki with earliest records of the population.
      0:58 bismarck would laugh at you. A nationrhat has a history going back more than 1000 year with such a spirit and willingness to sacrifice will not dissapear.
      1:11 yes, yes it is big mighty and scary.
      1:32 ohh god another ,,military expert"
      1:34 ,,steamrolling" 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
      The lack of research shows. Bruh ukraine had the second biggest military in europe aside from russia. 200.000 regualr personal, 115.000 paramilitary forces thpusands of tanks,ifv, artialry, enourmass suppoet from wesrern nations. Should i continue ? I mean yeah the russsia could have steamrolled over the nation if they brough more than 600.000 troops, used their strategic and tactical bombers and had raised the country to the ground leaving mass civilian casualties they could have wraped this in a month or so something like what the americans did in iraq. However i dout any of us want so much casualties.
      1:37 sending them in the grinder for a lost cause isnt putting up a good fight its just grinding yourself to nothingness.
      1:42 we are still waiting. First they said it was only about a month untill the sanctions start to work, then they said it was a few months now theya re saying years after that it will be decades. There are many opinions on this some say the russian economy wont even get a scratch some say they will be severly damaged. One thing is certain europenas are not happy with how much they have to sacrifice for a nation that they dont even care for. Sanctions also have an effect on the nation that inplements them as well further making our economic crisis worse.
      1:50 nope
      1:53 how can you be so bold ? Well there is the young and stupid factor, arogance and overconfidence in ones abilities and so on, we have to take into account current events and the predictions that we make fron those events, which can be and they are wring dew to the fac taht every single day somwthing happens and something changes which completely alter the future and makes pur predictions worthless.
      2:11 yes and no there is nore than just the snow in siberia and with the way things are going wirh climate change tht picture might change, notice i said might.

      Exactly. That's why they need to retake those regions, establish pipelines and sell them to the UE and use that money to rebuild their entire nation. So many people died because of this... In 2011 independent surveys found there to be _three times_ more oil and gas reserves in Ukraine than in Norway (a country which became VERY rich in the last few decades by exporting those resources to other countries). Putler's eyes lit up. That's why Crimea was illegally annexed soon after (in 2014). It holds the most resources of oil along the Black Sea. This war is about money.

    I personally think that a collapse of Russia seems a much more unlikely phenomenon than a transformation in the country's industry and politics (this would not solve all of Russia's problems, but it certainly could prevent a true collapse or disintegration of the country).
    But... I would agree with you that if Russia continues to perpetuate its current "solutions", the country will certainly do terrible. Hopefully there will be greater changes in the nation's politics, for the good of all the people of Russia, and of the world.

      Russia's distain for diplomacy and soft power is also rooted in their geopolitical horde mentality. Why make deals with people you don't view as people, but inferior pawns? Why bother with negotiation when you only value force? Russia has convinced itself that it is a superpower because of the inherent superiority of the Russian people, not that they were an empire that conquered, exploited, oppressed and committed genocide against all its neighbors for centuries.

    Russia may die or conduct reforms and a new policy to cope with all mentioned problems. Fun fact, after Russia defeated Crimean war in 1856 it reformed its economy, political sphere, social life, etc. The Crimean war definately boosted development of the nation.
